IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND OF THE Son, AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, ONE GOD. AMEN



Jesus, I come to You with a simple heart, and I place all my weakness and needs into Your hands


Teach me, through the intercession of Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus, to understand that love does not require great deeds, but a heart that loves You sincerely and serves You in the smallest details


Lord, teach me to love those around me, even when it is difficult, to forgive when I am hurt, to serve without expecting thanks, and to give without counting what I have given


Jesus, make me faithful in the little things, so that I may offer You a smile, a kind word, patience in times of weariness, and silence whenever silence becomes an act of love


Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus, teach me to walk with Jesus on the path of trust and simplicity, and to place myself completely in His hands, believing that a heart that truly loves can offer God the most beautiful gifts


Jesus, do not let me seek greatness for myself


Instead, make me little in my own eyes, great in my love for You, and faithful in serving those You place in my life


And when I cannot do anything great, remind me that I can always love


Jesus, take my heart and make it a dwelling place for Your love


Make me, like Thérèse, a bearer of Your love to everyone I meet




.Amen
