A Prayer For College Students
GOD has created me to do some definite service; God has committed some
work to me which as not been committed to another. I have my mission --
I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next.
I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons. God
has not created me for naught. I shall do good. I shall do God's work.
I shall be an angel of peace, a preacher of truth in my own place.
Whatever, wherever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness,
my sickness may serve the Lord; in perplexity, my perplexity may serve the
Lord; if I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve the Lord. God does nothing in
vain. Therefore I will trust in the Lord.
-Cardinal John Henry Newman
