Magnanimity: Extremely liberal generosity of spirit. (For those who didn't know what it means)
A morning resolve prayer
I will try this day to live a smiple, sincere and serene life, repelling promptly every thought of discontent, anxiety, discouragement, impurity, and self-seeking. I will cultivate cheerfulness, magnanimity, charity, and the habit of holy silience; exercising economy in expenditure, generousity in giving, carefulness in conversation, diligence in appointed service, fidelity to every trust, and a childlike faith in God.
In particular I will try to be faithful in those habits of prayer, work, study, physical exercise, eating and sleep which I believe the Holy Spirit has shown me to be right.
And as I cannot in my own strength do this, not even with a hope of success attempt it. I look to thee, O Lord God my Father, in Jesus my Savior's name and ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Amen
