Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

FEAST OF OUR LADY OF SORROWS

Prayer to Our Lady of Sorrows

O Blessed Mother, Our Lady of Sorrows, as you held the lifeless body of your Son in your arms, you embraced the suffering of the world.
Grant us, we pray, the grace to endure our own sorrows with faith and trust in God's divine plan. Help us to unite our pain with the Passion of Christ, that we may find hope in the promise of His resurrection.
Through your intercession, may we find strength and courage in times of trial, and may our hearts remain steadfast in love and devotion to your Son, our Savior. Amen.

A Night Prayer for the Creator's Heart

Heavenly Father, as we lay down to rest, we offer You all that we have created today. Bless the works of our hands and the desires of our hearts. Like the brushes that paint, allow our souls to be canvases for Your love.

Lord Jesus, in the quiet of this night, we see the figure of Your faithful saint, standing and watching over us. Let us be reminded of the peace and humility You give through the example of Your holy ones. As they walk in Your light, guide our steps in the ways of grace and compassion.

Holy Spirit, with every bead of the rosary, we feel Your presence. Wrap us in the mysteries of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, and fill our hearts with trust in Your divine will. In this stillness, we surrender our worries, knowing that You are our protector in every dark hour.

Mother Mary, hold us close as you did your Son, Jesus. Pray for us, as we close our eyes, that we may wake with renewed spirits, ready to serve and create anew for the glory of God.

Saints and angels, watch over us as we sleep, and lead us to dream of the beauty that awaits in God's kingdom. Amen.

Goodnight 🙏
