My dear Redeemer,
it is not from custom or human respect
that I come to receive Thee;
but it is solely to love and be united to Thee,
to live by Thee and for Thee,
to be delivered from my miseries,
to clothe myself with Thy virtues,
to strengthen myself against my enemies;
it is to ask from Thee the exaltation of the Church,
Thy beloved spouse,
the conversion of sinners,
perseverance for the just,
and deliverance for the poor souls in Purgatory.
Purify more and more my intentions,
rectify them, O my Jesus,
render them conformable to Thee;
this is my sole desire.
Peace of Christ to ALL
