Let us begin, In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 

I am the wheat of God, and am ground by the teeth of the wild beasts, that I may be found the pure bread of God. I long after the Lord, the Son of the true God and Father, Jesus Christ. Him I seek, who died for us and rose again. I am eager to die for the sake of Christ. My love has been crucified, and there is no fire in me that loves anything.
But there is living water springing up in me, and it says to me inwardly:” Come to the Father.”
