December 29, 1913
O LORD, grant that this collective convention of the end of the year may be for us an opportunity for finishing at once with the whole mass of ties and attachments, illusions and weaknesses that have no longer any reason for existence in our life. We must at each moment shake off the past like falling dust, so that it may not soil the virgin path which, also at each moment, opens before us.
May our errors, recognised and repaired within us, be no longer anything else than vain mirages incapable of producing any consequences, and may we, setting our foot firmly on all that should no more be, on all ignorances, all obscurities, all egoisms, boldly take our flight towards larger horizons and an intenser light, a more perfect compassion, a more disinterested love… towards Thee.
I salute Thee, O Lord, Master of all life and I would proclaim Thy reign upon earth.
