All heaven is blazing yet
With the meridian sun:
Make haste, unshadowing sun, make haste to set;
O lifeless life, have done.
I choose what once I chose;
What once I willed, I will:
Only the heart its own bereavement knows;
O clamorous heart, lie still.

That which I chose, I choose;
That which I willed, I will;
That which I once refused, I still refuse:
O hope deferred, be still.
That which I chose and choose
And will is Jesus' Will:
He hath not lost his life who seems to lose:
O hope deferred, hope still.
~Christina Rossetti

Yes, Lord. Help me desire the things You desire for me. Grant me the grace to set aside my own selfish desires. Help me refuse, help me forget, though the flesh cries out otherwise. Help me accept Your Will for my own. Amen.
