Novena to St. Thérèse
September 24 - to October 2
Day Three
Dearest St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus, you
said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth.
Your trust in God was complete. Pray that He may increase my trust in
His goodness and mercy as I ask for the following petitions.
(Mention your intentions)
Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in
the loving promises of our God. Pray that I may live my life in union with
God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply.
St. Thérèse, you were faithful to God up until the moment of your death.
Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace
and love to the world through faithful endurance of love for God our savior.
Amen.
Loving God, you gave St. Thérèse the ability to see You in the ordinary
routine of each day. Help me to be aware of your presence in the everyday
events of my life.
Dear Little Flower, make all things lead me to heaven and God. Whether I
look at the sun, the moon, the stars and the vast expanse in which they float,
or whether I look at the flowers of the field, the trees of the forest, the
beauties of the earth so full of color and so glorious, may they speak to me of
the love and power of God; may they all sing His praises in my ear.
Like you may I daily love Him more and more in return for His gifts.
Teach me often to deny myself in my dealings with others, that I may offer to
Jesus many little sacrifices.
Our Father
Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy
Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day
our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who
trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us
from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee;
Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death.
Amen.
Glory be
Glory be, to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in
the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
