Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by Saint Claudius La Colombière
“Sacred Heart of Jesus, teach me the perfect forgetfulness of myself, because it is the only way by which we can enter you. Because everything that I will do in the future will be for you, help me to ensure that I do not do anything that is not worthy of you; teach me what I must do to reach the purity of your love, from which you have inspired my deepest desire. I feel in me a great desire to please you, and a great impotence to face difficulties, without light and special help, which I cannot find outside of you. Do in me your will Lord; inside me, sometimes I oppose, I know very well, but I really wish I didn’t object: you have all the power to do what you have, divine heart of Jesus Christ, only you will have all the glory of my sanctification, if I manage to reach the holiness; this is revealed to me clearer than day; for which it will be for you a great glory, and it is only for this reason that I want to wish for perfection. So be it ! ”
