Daily Prayer
Dearest St. Therese of Lisieux, you said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth.
Your trust in God was complete. Pray that He may increase my trust in His goodness and mercy as I ask for the following petitions…
Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in the loving promises of our God. Pray that I may live my life in union with God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply.
St. Therese, you were faithful to God even unto the moment of your death. Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace and love to the world through faithful endurance in love for God our savior.
Loving God, you blessed St. Therese with a capacity for a great love. Help me to believe in your unconditional love for each of your children, especially for me.
Day 9
Preview: As we close our novena, let us pray for all missionaries and those they serve.
Reflection: As we conclude our novena, we reflect on the great love that St. Thérèse had for God’s people. She desired to serve them even in her “little way.” Today, we ask for her intercession to help us love those in missions more deeply and support them through prayer and action.
Daily Intention: I love your people, Lord. Help me to love those in the missions more!
Closing Prayer:
Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit…
Amen
