       serve and obey thee to the joy and content of thy divine
       Heart.
       O God, worthy of an infinite love, I have nothing which
       can  be  commensurate  with  thy  dignity;  but  such  is  my
       desire  towards  thee,  that  if  I  had  all  that  thou  hast,  I
       would gladly and thankfully resign all to thee.

                        HOLOCAUST
       When  St.  Gertrude  had  once  offered  this  holocaust  to
       God, our Lord Jesus Christ appeared to her, bearing her
       oblation and setting it forth before the Blessed Trinity as
       a  gift  of  exceeding  price;  and  as  he  passed  through  the
       midst  of  heaven  the  whole  heavenly  host  knelt  before
       him  in  reverence  for  that  choice  oblation.  Whence  she

       understood  that  whenever  anyone  offers  his  prayers  or
       his desires to God, the whole company of heaven bears
       them up to the throne of God as gifts most precious and
       acceptable; and that whenever the merits of Jesus Christ
       are added thereunto, the saints bow and adore them as
       aforesaid.
       O

              earth,  I  thy  most  unworthy  creature  offer  thee,
              upon the most sacred altar of the sweetest Heart
       of Jesus Christ, myself with all that I am, all I have, all I
       can  do,  together  with  every  good  gift  which  thou  hast
       ever  bestowed  on  me  from  thine  unfathomable,
       overflowing  bounty.  Moreover  I  offer  thee  all  the
       treasures  and  the  wealth  of  this  world,  all  kingdoms,
