The Lord discovered to me a sense of my unbelief that, though late, I should remember my transgressions and that I should be converted with my whole heart to the Lord my God.
The most High approveth not the gifts of the wicked.
The Lord opened the understanding of my unbelieving heart, so that I should recall my sins.
I have a Creator who knew all things, even before they were made - even me, his poor little child.
Sufficient for me is that honour which is not seen of men but is felt in the heart, as faithful is He who hath promised and who never lies.
I only seek in my old age to perfect that which I had not before thoroughly learned in my youth, because my sins were a hindrance to me.
