Surrender Prayer

Make me what Thou wouldst have me. I bargain for nothing. 
I make no terms. I seek for no previous information whither
 Thou art taking me. I will be what Thou wilt make me, and all 
that Thou wilt make me. I say not, I will follow Thee whither-
soever Thou goest, for I am weak, but I give myself to Thee,
 to lead me anywhither.

- John Henry Cardinal Newman (1801-1890),  
Parochial Sermons, v.V.

(Try to pray this prayer of surrender as sincerely as possible.  
Notice your areas of resistance, and offer them to 
God for conversion.)
