SAINT THÉRÈSE
NOVENA
(EWTN)
U Come Holy Spirit fill the hearts of the
faithful,
and kindle in them the fire of divine love.
Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created.
And You shall renew the face of the earth.
Let Us Pray:
O God, who have instructed the hearts of the faithful by
the light of the Holy Spirit;
grant that by the gift of the same Spirit,
we may be ever truly wise and rejoice in His consolation,
through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
O my God!
I believe in Thee:
Strengthen my faith. All my hopes are in Thee:
do Thou secure them. I love Thee:
teach me to love Thee daily more and more.
Amen.
O my God!
I am heartily sorry for having offended You,
and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of
heaven and the pains of hell,
but most of all because they offend You, my God,
who are all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace,
to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life.
Amen.
Prayer of St. Thérèse
O Lord, You have said:
Unless you
become as little children you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven;
grant us, we beg You, so to
follow, in humility and simplicity of heart,
the footsteps of the Virgin
blessed Thérèse,
that we may attain to an
everlasting reward.
Amen.
U
O
little martyr of Love,
you know now even better than in the days
of your pilgrimage that Love embraces all vocations;
that it is Love alone which counts,
which unites us perfectly to God and
conforms our will with His.
All you sought on earth was love;
to love Jesus as He had never yet been
loved.
Use your power in heaven to make us love
Him.
If only we love Him we shall desire to
make Him loved by others;
we shall pray much for souls.
We shall no longer fear death, for it will
unite us to Him forever.
Obtain for us the grace to do all for the
love of God,
to give Him pleasure, to love Him so well
that He may be pleased with us as He was
with you.
U St Theresa the Little Flower of Jesus,
pray for us. |
|
U Intercede for us all the days of our life,
but
specially during this Novena
and
obtain for us from God the graces and favours
we ask through your intercession.
Amen.
