Day 28 – Saturday, April 1 and 5th
Sunday of Lent, April 2
We are late in getting this out – thank you for your patience! It has
been a crazy weekend. We will conclude
the rest of St. Thérèse’s poem. It is a
reminder to call on the help of our Guardian Angels and seek Jesus every day!
In
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Thank you, dear Jesus, for giving us guardian angels! Thank you for their assistance and care. You always are looking out for us. Help us to believe in your words a little
more today!
St. Thérèse teaches
us through her poem ‘My Song for Today’ cont’d (stanzas 12-14):
“My
Holy Guardian Angel, cover me with your wing,
With
your fire light the road that I’m taking.
Come
direct my steps … help me. I call upon you
Just for today.
Lord,
I want to see you without veils, without clouds,
But
still exiled, far from you, I languish,
May
your lovable face not be hidden from me.
Just for today.
Soon
I’ll fly away o speak your praises
When
the day without sunset will dawn on my soul.
Then
I’ll sing on the Angels; lyre
The Eternal Today!” – The
Poetry of St. Thérèse of Lisieux
Lord
Jesus, please help us to remember our guardian angels. Help us remember they are here to aid us and
be our guide. Lead us on your path of
righteousness so that one day we may see you face to face in heaven!
Our
Father …
Hail
Mary …
Glory
Be …
Merciful
Father, in the name of Your sweet Jesus, of the Blessed Virgin and of the
Saints, I pray that I be fired with Your spirit of love, and that You will
grant me the grace to make You greatly loved.
(The daily prayer that St. Thérèse
taught us to say, adapted for our little lives.)
St.
Thérèse, pray for us!
In
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
