Sirach 6:37, Sirach 7:10

Meditate on the precepts of the Lord and apply yourself unceasingly to His commandments. He will strengthen your heart and the wisdom you desire will be given to you. Pray with a strong spirit and do not neglect to give alms.

Source of all strength, grant that I may always mediate on Your Word, obey it, live it, make it the rule of my life, so that I may please you always, my God.
