Shutting out the world with its illusions and deceptions, let us come close, very close to the divine Reality, Jesus, let us draw near to His Sacred Heart, that paradise of delights. The good Master is there, barely a step away. He is calling us. 


With boundless confidence pray Him to turn His eyes from our faults and during this Holy Hour, to open wide to us the Divine Wound in His Side. Let us enter there without fear, for it is a divine spring whose power ransoms poor sinners, sanctifies the just, alleviates great sorrows of life and drives away the fear of death."

PRAYER OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA

"Eternal Father, all things are possible for You. Although You created us without our assistance, You will not save us unless we help. Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."
