For all the holy souls in purgatory

July 10
“Eternal Father, I offer Thee the most precious blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home, and within my family. Amen.”
-St. Gertrude the Great
Today’s Reflection:
This prayer was given to St. Gertrude by Jesus. He promised that every time it was said, 1,000 souls would be released from Purgatory and allowed into God’s Presence. Am I willing to incorporate this prayer into my daily life? I will show my sincerity of heart by praying it again right now.
(Correction: The quote should have said 1,000 not 100,000)

O Sacred Heart of Jesus

June 15
“O Sacred Heart of Jesus, living and life-giving fountain of eternal life, infinite treasury of the Divinity, and glowing furnace of love, Thou art my refuge and my sanctuary. O adorable and glorious Saviour, consume my heart with that burning fire that ever inflames Thy Heart. Pour down on my soul those graces that flow from Thy love. Let my heart be so united with Thine, that our wills may be one, and mine may in all things be conformed to Thine. May Thy will be the rule of both my desires and my actions.”
– St. Gertrude the Great,
Prayer to the Sacred Heart (adapted by St. Alphonsus Liguori)
Today’s Reflection
Pray this prayer of St. Gertrude slowly and thoughtfully. What strikes you most profoundly about her prayer? Which aspect would you most like to embrace in your own relationship with Jesus?
