Daily Reflections, supplications and prayers

1. Reflection:

Now you shall consider My love in the Blessed Sacrament. Here, I am entirely yours, soul, body and divinity, as your Bridegroom. You know what love demands: one thing only, reciprocity…….

Application: O my Jesus, You know that I desire to love you with a love that no soul (126) has ever before loved You with. I would like the whole world to be transformed into love for You, my Betrothed. You feed me with the honey and milk of Your Heart. From my earliest years, You reared me for Yourself alone, so that I would know how to love You now. You know that I love You, because You alone know the depth of the sacrifice I offer You each day.

Jesus said to me, My daughter, have you any difficulties in this retreat? I answered that I hadn‟t. In this retreat, my mind is like lightning. I penetrate all the mysteries of faith with great ease. My Master and Leader, all darkness disappears from my mind under the ray of Your light.

Today, for your spiritual reading, you will take the Gospel of Saint John, chapter twenty-one. Let it feed your heart more than your mind.

 (127) + During the June devotions, the Lord said to me, My daughter, My favor rests in your heart. When on Holy Thursday I left Myself in the Blessed Sacrament, you were very much on My mind.

After these words, my love made great efforts to express to Him what He was to me, but I was at a loss for words and burst into tears in my helplessness. And Jesus said, For you, I am mercy itself; therefore I ask you to offer Me your misery and this very helplessness of yours and, in this way, you will delight My Heart.

Today, a living flame of divine love entered my soul; if it had lasted any longer, I would have been consumed by the fire, freeing myself of the bonds of the present. It seemed to me that, if it had lasted an instant longer, I would have been drowned in the ocean of love. I cannot describe these arrows of love that pierce my soul (Saint María Faustina Kowalska, Divine Mercy in My Soul, Diary, Diary, 1770-1776).

2. Supplications:

  • Let us ask for the grace to present our miseries to God with confidence, so that He fills us with His graces,
  • Let us pray for those who have commited sacrileges in our Catholic Church,
  • Let us ask the Lord to have commiseration of our suffering humanity and for  the end  of the spread of COVID-19 throughout the world,
  • For the souls in purgatory,
  • For our suffering humanity and for our personal intentions.

 3. Resolutions of the day:

Live a deep intimacy with the Lord.

4. Final Prayer: 

Oh JESUS, Eternal God, I thank you for your innumerables graces and blessings. May each beat of my heart be a new hymn of thanks to you, oh God. May every drop of my blood circulate for You, oh Lord. My soul is a whole hymn of adoration to Your Mercy. I love You God for being Yourself. Oh My Good Merciful Jesus, King of Mercy, I trust in You, and only in you I Hope. Amen. Jesus I Trust in You. (Cf. Diary,1794).
