Holy Mary, Mother of God
Pray for me
That I may follow your example
Of humility, obedience, and faith
Following God’s will
And fulfilling His plan
Amen
Tuesday, August 16
Lord Jesus, empty me
Make me last
Take away my pride
Any gifts you leave me with
My talents, myself, my time,
I will share in gratitude
In Your name,
And for Your sake.
Amen
Wednesday, August 17
Let me labor, Lord, in Your vineyard
For a moment, if not for a day
I seek the reward of the labor
And not the reward of the pay
In Your providence I will trust fully
I do not fear hunger or thirst
I worry not whether I’m lowly
For I know that the last shall be first
Amen
Thursday, August 18
Lord Jesus by Your invitation
You have opened the door to the feast
In the clothing of faith I approach You
To dine where the greatest are least
Amen
Friday, August 19
I love You, O God, with all of my soul,
I love You for Your sake alone.
Your image shines forth
From each person I meet
And I love them for Your sake alone.
With all of my heart,
And with all of my strength,
I love You for Your sake alone.
Amen
