Apostolic Prayer

O my God and my Father, may I know you and make you known; may I love you and make you loved; may I serve you and make you served; may I praise you and make all creatures praise you. My Father, grant that all sinners may be converted, all the just persevere in grace, and all of us attain eternal glory. Amen.

Nothing More than to Love You

Because you are so good, my Father, I want nothing more than to know your holy will, so that I may do it; nothing more than to love you with all my heart and serve you with all fidelity. Father, give me the constant grace to know what pleases you, and the strength of will to do it. Amen.

Here I am, Lord

If you want, make me an instrument to proclaim your kingdom. Lord, let me eat in order to gain energy and serve you better; let me use the things of this world as needs require, let me study to know and serve you better and to help my brothers and sisters; let me rest to regain the strength I have used up and serve you better.

You are More than Enough for Me

Lord, you are my love, my honor, my hope, my refuge. You are my glory and my goal. My Master, my Father. Help me to seek nothing more than you nor to know anything but your holy will and how to fulfill it. I want you alone, and in you, by you and for you all other things. You are more than enough for me. Make me love you as you love me and as you would have me love you.

Fire that Forever Blazes

Fire that forever blazes and never goes out, love that forever burns and never grows cold, embrace me that I may love you. I love you, Jesus, with all my heart, with all my sou l, with all my strength. O that I m ay love you more and that all may love you. O that you might be loved by me and by all your creatures. Most Holy Virgin, grant me the favor that all may be saved and no one condemned.

Father, Teach Me Goodness

I believe, Lord, but let me believe more firmly. I hope, Lord, but let me hope more surely. I love, Lord, but let me love more ardently. I repent, Lord, but let me repent more deeply. I beg you, Lord, what do you want me to do? Teach me to fulfill your will, for you are my God. Give me an understanding heart to distinguish right from wrong. Father, give me humility, meekness, chastity, patience and charity. Father, teach me goodness, knowledge and discipline. Father, give me your love, together with your grace, and I will be rich enough.

My God, My Jesus, My All

My God, my Jesus, my All. On the cross I have lived and on the cross I wish to die, and from the cross I hope to come down, not by my own hands, but by the hands of others, after my sacrifice has been consumed. God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord, Jesus Christ, through which the world is crucified to me and I to the world. Amen.

Exercise on the Love of God

My God, be the God you are and have always been: I find joy in whatever you are. You have infinite power: be the all – powerful God you are. You have infinite wisdom: may you be praised, be the infinite wisdom you are. You have infinite goodness, infinite charity, and infinite forgiveness. Lord, be the infinite goodness, charity and forgiveness you are. Lord, be the infinite mercy, providence and generosity you are. 3 Lord, you are glorious and blessed without end; be as glorious and blessed as you are. You, Lord, are Three and One, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, three distinct persons and one true God; be three and one as you are. You are our Savior and Glorifier and that of all creatures, may you be praised. You, Lord are universal Lord, who are loved, praised and served by the angels, and the blessed in heaven and by the people on earth; be Lord of all, and may all in heaven and on earth love, praise, and serve you without end. Heart of Jesus, love God for me. Heart of Mary, love God for me. Heart of all the saints, love God for me. All you, choirs of angels, love God f or me. All creatures, love God for me. Divine Fire that always burns and is never extinguished, Heart of Jesus, that always burns and never grows cold, make my heart always burn with the fire of divine love. Amen.
