Consecration to
the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O Sacred Heart of
Jesus, filled with infinite love, broken by my
ingratitude, pierced by my sins, yet loving me
still, accept the consecration that I make to Thee
of all that I am and all that I have. Take
every faculty of my soul and body, and draw me day
by day nearer and nearer to Thy Sacred Side; and
there, as I can bear the lesson, teach me Thy
blessed ways. |

Prayer to the Divine Heart of
Jesus
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I
adore Thee with all the powers of my soul. To Thee, I
consecrate all the powers of my soul. To Thee, I consecrate my
understanding, my memory, my will, all my thoughts, words and
actions. O sweetest Heart, why can I not off Thee the honor,
the gratitude, and the love wherewith Thou honorest Thy Father, and
wherewith the Angels and the Saints, and Thy most holy and beloved
Mother honor Thee in Heaven!
O Divine Heart of Jesus, which for
love of us beats in the Sacred Host, I adore Thee, I love Thee, and
I implore Thee for Thy grace for all my relatives, friends,
benefactors; for poor sinners, prisoners, travelers, the sick, and
the dying; for all suffering hearts, and for people of the whole
world. May Thy Precious Blood not be lost on any soul, O
sweetest Jesus. I comment to Thee in particular the poor
suffering souls in Purgatory. For all these graces I wish to
implore Thee, O Jesus, with every breath that I draw until the end
of my life.
Sweetest Heart of Jesus, imprint
my name upon Thy Wounds, save my soul! O Heart of Jesus that
lovest us so much, inflame the fire of Thy Divine Love always more
and more in our hearts. O Jesus, meek and humble of heart,
make our hearts like unto Thine. Sweetest Heart of Jesus, heal
the coldness and indifference of my poor heart. Grant that I
may love Thee above all things, desire only and alone Thee Who art
the happiness of the Saints who already love Thee perfectly.
When O Lord, shall I, united with them, love Thee perfectly in
Heaven? Amen. |

A Spiritual
Communion
By St. Conrad of Parzham
I have
come to spend a few moments with Thee, O Jesus,
and in spirit I prostrate myself in the dust
before Thy Holy Tabernacle to adore Thee, my
Lord and God, in deepest humiliy. Once more a
day has come to its close, dear Jesus, another
day which brings me nearer to the grave and my
beloved heavenly home. Once more, O Jesus, my
heart longs for Thee, the true Bread of Life,
which containes all sweetness and relish. O my
Jesus, mercifully grant me pardon for the faults
and ingratitutde of this day, and come to me to
refresh my poor heart which longs for Thee. As
the heart pants for the waters, as the parched
earth longs for the dew of heaven, even so does
my poor heart long for Thee, Thou Fount of Life.
I love Thee, O Jesus, I hope in Thee, I love
Thee, and out of love for Thee I regret
sincerely all my sins. May Thy peace and Thy
benediction be mine now and always and for all
eternity. Amen.
