“If you shall ask me anything in my name, that I will do” ~John 14:14

NOVENA
(Feast of the Sacred Heart is on June 7)
I.       O my Jesus, you have said: "Truly I say to you, ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you." Behold I knock, I seek and ask for the grace of......(here name your request)
Our Father....Hail Mary....Glory Be to the Father....Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

II.      O my Jesus, you have said: "Truly I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father in my name, he will give it to you." Behold, in your name, I ask the Father for the grace of.......(here name your request) Our Father...Hail Mary....Glory Be To the Father....Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

III.    O my Jesus, you have said: "Truly I say to you, heaven and earth will pass away but my words will not pass away." Encouraged by your infallible words I now ask for the grace of.....(here name your request) Our Father....Hail Mary....Glory Be to the Father...Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

OSacred Heart of Jesus, for whom it is impossible not to have compassion on the afflicted, have pity on us miserable sinners and grant us the grace which we ask of you, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, your tender Mother and ours.

Say the Hail, Holy Queen and add: St. Joseph, foster father of Jesus, pray for us.


The Twelve Promises of Jesus to Saint Margaret Mary for those devoted to His Sacred Heart:

  1. I will give them all the graces necessary for their state of life.
  2. I will establish peace in their families.
  3. I will console them in all their troubles.
  4. They shall find in My Heart an assured refuge during life and especially at the hour of their death.
  5. I will pour abundant blessings on all their undertakings.
  6. Sinners shall find in My Heart the source of an infinite ocean of mercy.
  7. Tepid souls shall become fervent.
  8. Fervent souls shall speedily rise to great perfection.
  9. I will bless the homes where an image of My Heart shall be exposed and honored.
  10. I will give to priests the power of touching the most hardened hearts.
  11. Those who propagate this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be effaced.
  12. The all-powerful love of My Heart will grant to all those who shall receive Communion on the First Friday of nine consecutive months the grace of final repentance; they shall not die under my displeasure, nor without receiving their Sacraments; My heart shall be their assured refuge at that last hour.

O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You.

MY FIRST SPIRITUAL ADOPTION: THE CONVERSION OF MY SPIRITUAL ADOPTED FATHER 

3/6/2013

After reading “The Life of Venerable Anne De Guigne”, she inspired me to love sinners.  Anne would pray for their conversion with all her heart.  She prayed until they were converted.  Ever since I was a small girl I had a great desire to work for God. I wanted to use my life for His Glory. My soul was thirsty. Nothing satisfied my longing for my God. I have the need to be useful for God’s Glory. I wished I could have been a nun or missionary or a great heroine like Joan of Arc, but God called me to the married life instead.  My desire to work for the Lord was still burning in my heart more and more. Now, I desired to become a servant since I could not be anything I wished I could have been.  I felt a call to pray for the conversion of sinners.  While in church at a Sunday Mass, I looked up to see the painting of Our Lady and to my surprise, I heard Our Lady say in my heart that she wanted me to pray for sinners, but to pray for them as if they were part of my own family, my own brothers and sisters. There was a man at my parish that would drive his wife to daily Mass everyday and wait in his car for her. On Sundays he would go to Mass but he would not receive Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.  It would break my heart every time I saw him because he was so close and yet so far.  This man reminded me of my earthly father whom I loved so much.  I saw him every Sunday since we went to the same mass. I felt called to adopt him as my first spiritually adopted father.  I asked Our Lady if she would take me as her servant.  I wanted to serve Jesus with all my heart through her, and I asked her for a sign that she would accept my poor insignificant offering.  The sign was that I would see this poor man, my first spiritually adopted father receive Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. Day after day I prayed for my adopted father especially during the Consecration at Mass.  I prayed with all my heart to the point that my heart would hurt.  Since I did not know his name I wrote a description on a piece of paper which I put under a statue of Our Lady and his name for me was ‘My adopted father.”  The more I prayed for him the greater the desire help him to save his soul. I offered my communions for his conversion, I added him to my daily prayers, I asked my family to pray for him, etc.  My love for my adopted father grew more and more each day.  After praying for him for a while I started to really see him like my real earthly father.  After six months, Our Lady, The Virgin Mary gave me the most beautiful surprise, it was Christmas Day 2004, She had finally accepted my poor offering.  I saw her statue smile at me; my adopted father went up and received Our Lord’s Body and Blood.  I was unable to hold my tears. The happiness in my heart was inexplicable.  I felt such a great joy.  I have never been so happy in my entire life.  I knew at that moment I had become Our Lady’s servant.  I knew at that moment that I had found my vocation, to work for the salvation of my brothers and sisters. 



May the Lord bless you all!
