Whom do I want to serve? The Lord - in the person of his poor suffering children.
And what is my reward? I serve neither for reward nor thanks, but out of gratitude and love; my reward is that I am permitted to serve.
And if I perish in doing so? If I perish, I perish, said Esther, who, after all, did not know him who for love of me perished and who will not let me perish.
And if I grow old in this serive? Then my heart shall flourish like the palm tree, and the Lord will satisfy my with grace and mercy. I walk in peace and am careful for nothing."
