For love of You, O Jesus, I die completely to myself today and begin to live for the greater glory of Your Holy Name. Love, it is for love of You, O Most Holy Trinity, that I offer myself to You as an oblation of praise, as a holocaust of total self-immolation. And through this self-immolation, I desire the exaltation of Your Name, O Lord. I cast myself as a little rosebud at Your feet, O Lord, and may the fragrance of this flower be known to You alone.

The past does not belong to me; the future is not mine; with all my soul I try to make use of the present moment. (Diary, 351)
