Day 30 – Tuesday, April 4
Love, love, love! To love
someone means you think of their needs before your own. It means you give of yourself to
another. St. Thérèse tells us that love
is enough for us! That’s easy
enough! So simple and yet, yes, it is
sometimes hard to do. Let us stay strong in perseverance as we only have 10
days left of Lent! We are nearing our
finish line – nearing the beauty of Jesus’ glorious Resurrection! Let’s love with all our hears in every little
thing.
In
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Thank you, dear Jesus, for loving us so much! You are the source of our Love and its ending
point. Please cover us with your love
every day!
St. Thérèse teaches
us:
“I
desire no sensible consolation in loving; provided Jesus feel my love that is
enough for me. Oh! to love Him and to make Him loved...how sweet it is...” – V letter to Mother Agnes of Jesus
Lord
Jesus, please help us to love others more.
Help us to persevere when it is hard to love. Help us to suffer well – to offer each
challenge as a flower of love to you, sweet Jesus. We love you!
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.
Today’s Little Flower activity: Speak
a kind word to someone who would not expect it.
(Color in a flower for Jesus when your mom or dad has seen that it is
completed!)
