A Novena to the Sacred Heart of our Lord and Savior (Day Five)

Cor ad cor loquitur

Pause and set aside your sorrows and preoccupations as well as you can for the moment. Remember that "unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it," but "with God all things are possible." Speak from your heart to your Creator:

O most holy Heart of Jesus,
fountain of every blessing,
I adore Thee, I love Thee
and with a lively sorrow for my sins,
I offer Thee this poor heart of mine.
Make me humble, patient, pure
and wholly obedient to Thy will.
Grant, good Jesus,
that I may live in Thee and for Thee.
Protect me in the midst of danger;
comfort me in my afflictions;
give me health of body,
assistance in my temporal needs,
Thy blessing on all that I do,
and the grace of a holy death.
Within Thy Heart I place my every care.
In every need let me come to Thee
with humble trust saying,
Heart of Jesus help me.

(Our Lady of Perpetual Help, pray for us).
