My beloved Jesus, I come to You today with a weary heart and a soul longing to return to You completely
I do not want to stand before You with many words, but with a sincere heart that says My Lord, have mercy on me and renew me
Wash my heart in Your mercy, and cleanse it from everything that has drawn me away from You
Erase from within me the traces of sin, and uproot from my heart everything that does not please You
Lord, teach me to repent not only with my lips, but with my whole being
Give me a repentance that changes my path, restores my heart, and turns my steps back toward Your presence
I know my weakness, and I know how many times I have fallen
But I also know that Your mercy is greater than my failures, and that Your love is deeper than every wound within me
Jesus, do not let me become accustomed to sin, and do not let me justify what separates me from You
Give me a heart that rejects evil, longs for Your presence, and rejoices in obeying You
Wash my heart from pride, from hatred, anger, judgment, and every attachment that competes with Your love within me
Wash my memory from everything that weighs it down, my thoughts from everything that disturbs my peace, and my will from everything that hinders me from following You
My Lord, grant me the grace to weep over my sins, not in despair, but with a heart that knows that the door of Your mercy is open to everyone who returns to You sincerely
When I am weak, raise me up
When I fall, lift me up
When I wander away, call me back
When my heart becomes hardened, soften it with the touch of Your love
Jesus, I want to put on the garment of repentance and be ready to meet You
I do not want to live carelessly, but to remain watchful, faithful, and steadfast on Your path
For You are the Bridegroom, and my heart longs to meet You
Lord, if Your day is near, make me ready
And when the hour of meeting You comes, do not find my heart far from You
Wash my heart in Your mercy, keep me steadfast in Your love, and bring me back to You every day, so that I may remain faithful to You until the end
Jesus, Son of the living God, have mercy on me, forgive me, renew my heart, and make me wholly Yours
.Amen
