Grace (St. Patrick / St. Ignatius of Loyola)

I was not quick to recognize 
the grace that was then in me... 

--St. Patrick  

      Grace: This is to ask for what I desire. Here it will be to ask for an intimate knowledge of our Lord, who has become man for me, that I may love Him more and follow him more closely. 

--St. Ignatius of Loyola, Spiritual Exercises #103
