A Prayer of John Henry Cardinal Newman

     God has created me to do Him some definite service.  He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another.  I have my mission, I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next. 

     I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons.  He has not created me for naught.  I shall do good – I shall be an angel of peace, a preacher of truth in my own place while not intending it, if I do but keep his commandments. 

     Therefore I will trust Him.  Whatever I am, I can never be thrown away.  If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him; in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him; if I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. 

     He does nothing in vain.  He knows what He is about; He may take away my friends.  He may throw me among strangers.  He may make me feel desolate, make my spirits sink, hide my future from me – still He knows what He is about!
