ACT OF CONFIDENCE

My soul,

dilate thy heart;

thy Jesus can give thee every good gift;

He loves thee ardently.

Hope, then,

for great favours from this Lord,

Who, through an impulse of love,

comes to thee all love.

Yes, my Jesus, my hope,

I trust in Thy goodness,

that in giving Thyself to me this morning,

Thou wilt kindle in my poor soul

the flames of Thy pure love,

and of an ardent desire to please Thee,

that, from this day forward,

I may wish only what Thou wishest.

Amen.

Therefore, from the day we heard this, we do not cease praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding to live in a manner worthy of the Lord, so as to be fully pleasing, in every good work bearing fruit and growing in the knowledge of God, strengthened with every power, in accord with his glorious might, for all endurance and patience, with joy giving thanks to the Father, who has made you fit to share in the inheritance of the holy ones in light. He delivered us from the power of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
