great Comunion <date>August 13</date><hi rend="superscript"><date>th</date></hi><date>. 1727</date>, and I begged the Lord Jesus,
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, and 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 and 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, and 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 went and 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 and 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 Holy 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, and 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
and Bloodshedding had also happened for my sake, and that I was
his Property. I could not sufficiently contemplate our Savior
in his Sufferings Beauty, whereby all external Troubles and
Difficulties were made quite easy to me. In <date>January 1729</date>
I was to my inexpressible Joy admitted to the Holy Comunion
with the Congregation. I then made |: as it was the Custom at that
Time :| a public Confession before the Congregation that I would be,
long with Soul and Body to my Redeemer and devote to Him
Life and 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 and
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 intirely, and to look upon it as my
destined Share to follow him, in Poverty and Reproach. By Occasion
that I was joined in Holy Matrimony <date>September 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
begged Him to be with me, and lead me by his Hand, till he would
happily take me home. He did not last long, before we had to
