z HOU hast made us for Thyself, 0 God, and our hearts are restless until they rest in Theef, On many lanes and paths and byways have we set our feet. Groping along the corridors of our minds, we have found new doors, which, when opened, revealed undreamed 0f Vistas. Our entrance rightly required that we lay aside our girlhood, for this new land was womanas estate, and called for spiritual maturity. Drawn like a magnet, we rush along this path to that which our souls seek. God is our beginning and in God is our end, but we must strive to gain Him. Just calling upon His name will not save us. In all humility we OHer Him all of this creation with which He has endowed us so richly. T0 Him, Who is all beauty, we return all beauty that this world contains. As children we had to grow until we reached an adult,s estate; so now we are as children in His Grace and must grow and become fruitful before we can reach His Perfect Peace. Upon His divine truths we have nourished our dear faith, and felt it lead us ever closer to perfection. Of ourselves we are weak, and must look beyond ourselves to gain that end which we seek. From God alone can come this aid which speeds us to grow out of ourselves into the iiPerfect Joyf,
