“A God who became so small could only be mercy and love.”
-St. Thérèse of Lisieux
Today's Reflection:
Reflect on the amazing love of God with this excerpt from the Litany of Let Love, written by Sr. Mariae Agnus Dei, SV of the Sisters of Life:
Father, good and ever-faithful.
Jesus, Savior ever-merciful.
Holy Spirit, well-spring of true life and love.
I give You permission.
Reign in my heart, mind, soul, and life.
Let Your Love come into my past, present and future.
Let Your Love unfold in me.
That I Let Love reveal who I am,
God, in Whose Image I’ve been made, Father me.
That I Let Love define me,
God, in Whose Likeness I’ve been formed, shape me.
That I Let Love with courage and hope,
God, to Whose glory I’ve been called, be my strength.
That I Let Love forgive me,
Save me Lord Jesus.
That I Let Love love me to the depths of my being,
Save me Lord Jesus.
That I Let Love heal and glorify my wounds,
Save me Lord Jesus.
That I Let Love free me from sin,
Save me Lord Jesus.
That I Let Love liberate me from all my fears,
Save me Lord Jesus.
That I Let Love reconcile me to wholeness and peace,
Save me Lord Jesus.
That I Let Love cherish me,
Father, hold me in Your Heart.
That I Let Love receive me,
Jesus, keep me in your wounds.
That I Let Love be my rock and security,
Spirit, keep me in your peace.
Amen.
