great Comunion <date>Aug. 13</date><hi rend="superscript"><date>th</date></hi><date>. 1727</date>, and I begged the Lord Jesus,
attended with many Tears to think also of me. I went here to
School to <persname>Mr. Krumpa</persname>, who often told us that he loved the
Lord Jesus, because he had shed his Blood for us. This excited
in me a Confidence to our Savior that he probably had also
shed his Blood for me, & would have Mercy upon me. At the
Time when in <placename>Herrnhut</placename> the great Awakening among the Children
began, he asked once his Scholars: Whether they also would love
our Savior & give him their Hearts, so that He might wash them
wih his Blood? With those who expressed a Desire for it, he
made a Covenant, to love Him above all Things who loved us
first. Upon which Occasion He in whose Eyes we were precious
walked certainly in our Midst, & none of us knew what had hap,
pened unto us. It occasioned a great Joy in <placename>Herrnhut</placename>, that our
Savior had also graciously visited the Children in <placename>Berthelsdorf</placename>.
We wept & prayed together during an inexpressible Feeling of the
Nearness of Jesus.
My Parents moved soon after to <placename>Herrnhut</placename>, where we had
it outwardly very pinching & hard. But I must say to the
Praise of our Savior, that I could suit myself pretty well into
poor Circumstances, for I had left my Mother Country with
no other Intention, than to be satisfied with Bread and Water.
But the H. Ghost begun a new Work in me. I learned to know
our Savior as the Friend of poor Sinners; he forgave me
the Sin of Not believing in Him and His Merit, & showed me my
[page break]
Name engraven into his Hands. Now happy did my Heart
feel when he cleared it up to me, that His Sufferings, his Death
& Bloodshedding had also happened for my sake, & that I was
his Property. I could not sufficiently contemplate our Savior
in his Sufferings Beauty, whereby all external Troubles &
Difficulties were made quite easy to me. In <date>January 1729</date>
I was to my inexpressible Joy admitted to the H. Comunion
with the Congrn. I then made |: as it was the Custom at that
Time :| a public Confession before the Cogrn. that I would be,
long with Soul & Body to my Redeemer & devote to Him
Life & All. In this blessed Enjoyment of our Savior, I went
on during a particular Care of the never to be forgotten Dis,
ciple of the Lord, <persname>Count Zinzendorf</persname>, who took much Care &
Pain with me, till <date>1732</date> when i came to <placename>Ebersdorf</placename>, to take
Care of some young Countesses. Here I was to my Heart
somewhat removed from the Simplicity in Christ Jesus.
But our Savior, according to his great Faithfulness, did not
suffer me to be plucked out of his Hand, but renewed in me that
Mind to devote myself to him <sic>intirely <corr>entirely</corr></sic>, & to look upon it as my
destined Share to follow him, in Poverty & Reproach. By Occasion
that I was joined in H. Matrimony <date>Sept. 8</date><hi rend="superscript"><date>th</date></hi><date>. 1733</date> with that
Servent of Jesus my late Husband <persname>David Kriegelstein</persname>, I re,
newed the Covenant with our Savior to be his with Soul and Body, and
