Satisfied with knowledge ...

Angela sends this prayer to us today:

And shall it please Thee
to continue here in this world
Where much is to be done
And little to be known,
Teach me by Thy Holy Spirit
To withdraw my mind
From unprofitable and dangerous inquiries,
From difficulties vainly curious,
And doubts impossible to be solved.
Let me rejoice in the right
Which Thou has implanted.
Let me serve Thee with active zeal
And humble confidence,
And wait with patient expectation
For the time in which the soul which Thou receivest
Shall be satisfied with knowledge.
Grant this, O Lord, for Jesus Christ's sake.
Amen.
--Samuel Jackson

Blessings,

Jason
