1. A little more patience--to bear up with this person with whom I am compelled to live and who is not at all congenial to me.


2. A little more firmness--to continue this work which duty demands and which is so disagreeable to me.


3. A little more humility--to remain at the post to which God has led me and which does not correspond with my dreams and plans.


4. A little more common sense--to take people as they are and not as I should like them to be.


5. A little more prudence--to bother as little as possible about others and their affairs.


6. A little more strength--to endure an event which so suddenly and profoundly disturbs my peace of soul.


7. A little more cheerfulness--so as not to show I have been hurt.


8. A little more unselfishness--in trying to understand the thoughts and feelings of others.


9. Above all, a little more prayer--to draw God to my heart and take counsel with Him.
