The Lord carry much instruction to my mind and heart from the scenes of
the past week, and may He teach me, and enable me to rely on Himself for
protection in all the perils that surround and threaten me. The Lord inspire my
heart with holy courage. The Lord make me His humble, confiding, holy little
child, and profit greatly my dear wife by the instructive providences through
which we are passing.
