To learn to live, one must learn to love… Sometimes we take the wrong path on the journey of love! Because, to love, one must know how to discern…
Holy Spirit, light of our understanding, serene impulse of our decisions, grant me the grace of attentive listening to your voice, to discern “the passwords” of my heart, that which I am most sensitive to, to understand what is truly important to me and to rid myself of what disturbs my heart.
I ask for the grace to learn to pause to become aware of my way of acting, of the feelings that inhabit me and, of the recurring thoughts that condition me, and that I often do not notice.
I want to know myself and understand my deepest desires so that my decisions lead me to the joy that comes only from You. Even if I have to go through uncertainties and hardships, even if I have to fight, think, and seek… In the end, your joy in me is the fruit of the right decision. Grant me to know myself more to know You more, to love You more and serve You.
Amen.
