Time flies with rapid wings! Eternity, with all its solemn realties, approaches! Are we ready and willing to launch away? I realize more than ever that my time below is growing short, that death will soon lay its long, icy fingers upon me and take me away.
Therefore, may my latter days be crowned with peace, characterized by holiness, and have extensive usefulness--this is all my desire. Another week has run into eternity and here I am, left on the sands of time, with opportunities to do good, and gain good for my own soul.
May my poor dull mind be enlightened, my needy heart softened, and my irregular life be made to accord exactly with the Word of God. I want to be as holy as Jesus is holy, and be employing all my powers in God's service. Every moment I would give to the Lord. I am hastening to heaven, and there all my powers, faculties, and talents will be employed for God forever.
Nothing but the presence, power and work of the Holy Spirit will make me what I ought to be or produce the change I desire to see. Oh, for entire consecration to God! Lord, my life and abilities I have consecrated to Your service and praise. I wish to live only for You here on earth and to spend eternity with You in heaven.
I do solemnly and deliberately, with my whole heart, give up myself to You---body, soul, and spirit. Every talent I consecrate to Your service; every day I would spend in Your work; in every action I would seek Your glory. Lord, take me more sensibly and evidently than ever before into Your own hands, and give me grace in greater measure than I have ever received it, that I may become more like You, do more for You, and bring more glory and honor to You.
