ACT OF OBLATION TO THE SACRED HEART

 

My loving Jesus, out of the grateful love I bear you, and to make reparation

for my unfaithfulness to grace, I give you my heart, and I consecrate myself

wholly to you; and with your help I purpose never to sin again. Amen.

 

 

ACT OF CHARITY (LOVE)

 

O my God, I love you above all things with my whole heart and soul because you

are all good and worthy of all my love. I love my neighbor as myself for the love of you.

I forgive all who have injured me and ask pardon of all whom I have injured.

 

Amen.

 

ACT OF FAITH

 

O my God, I firmly believe that you are one God in three persons,

   Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

 

I believe that your divine Son became man and died for our sins.

 

And that he will come again to judge the living and the dead.

 

I believe these and all the truths that the holy Catholic Church

   teaches because you revealed them who cannot deceive nor be decieved.

 

Amen.

 

 

ACT OF HOPE

 

O my God, relying on your infinite mercy and promises,

 

I hope to obtain the pardon of my sins, the help of your grace, and life everlasting,

through the merits of Jesus Christ, my Lord and my Redeemer.

 

Amen.

 

ACT OF ADORATION

 

Jesus, my God, I adore You, here present in the Blessed Sacrament of the

altar, where You wait day and night to be our comfort while we await Your

unveiled presence in heaven. Jesus, my God, I adore You in all places where

the Blessed Sacrament is reserved and where sins are committed against this

Sacrament of Love. Jesus, my God, I adore You for all time, past, present and

future, for every soul that ever was, is or shall be created. Jesus, my God,

who for us has endured hunger and cold, labor and fatigue, I adore You. Jesus,

my God, who for my sake has deigned to subject Yourself to the humiliation of

temptation, to the perfidy and defection of friends, to the scorn of Your

enemies, I adore You. Jesus, my God, who for us has endured the buffeting of

Your passion, the scourging, the crowning with thorns, the heavy weight of the

cross, I adore You. Jesus, my God, who, for my salvation and that of all

mankind, was cruelly nailed to the cross and hung there for three long hours

in bitter agony, I adore You. Jesus, My God, who for love of us did institute

this Blessed Sacrament and offer Yourself daily for the sins of men, I adore

You. Jesus, my God, who in Holy Communion became the food of my soul, I adore

You.

 

Jesus, for You I live. Jesus, for You I die. Jesus, I am Yours in life and

death. Amen.

 

 

 

PRAYER FOR FAITH

 

My Jesus, how often I feel very small and inadequate before great tasks and

responsibilities. What can I do but bring all that I have, even though it isn't

much, and place all this in Your hands. Wait for Your blessing, breaking,

thanking; and receive back again with amazing power to reach all who depend on

me, fill them with goodness and still have more than what I started with. May I

never hold back my gifts from You. May I believe that Your blessing multiplies

my smallest gifts to maximum powers. May I rejoice that You return the task to

me and I have the personal thrill of seeing many satisfied by my ministrations.

I adore Your wisdom, Your power, Your sharing. Amen.
