"Although I am always making good resolutions, yet through lack of grace to help my weakness, I recoil in failure at the least sigh of opposition. Lord your grace is absolutely necessary for me for starting off some good act, for improving it, for making it perfect. Without it I can do nothing; in you, and with the support of your grace, I can do anything. Ah yes grace is something from heaven; without it, our own merits are nothing, our natural gifts of no account whatever" (Thomas a Kempis, Imitation Pg. 206).
Here is a late happy new year.
