Dear God, I worry overmuch. It gets in the way of my ability to be your servant. I am thinking too often and too much about my own woes. How, Lord, can I abandon myself to you?
How can I leave this self-centered fear behind, a heap of discarded, restrictive clothing?
Let me be new. Reborn as your joyous servant. Let me be eager today, to do your will at every turn.
(Letter 1044)
