Lord, I come to Your tender Heart today, to You who have words that set my heart ablaze, who pour out compassion on the little ones and the poor, those who suffer, and on all human miseries.
I desire to know You more, to contemplate You in the Gospel, to be with You and learn from You, from the charity with which You allowed Yourself to be touched by all forms of poverty.
You showed us the Father’s love by loving us without measure with Your divine and human Heart. Grant all Your children the grace of encountering You, to change, shape, and transform our plans, so that we seek only You in every circumstance, in prayer, in work, in encounters, and in the daily routine.
Be for us a source from which all consolation flows.
Amen.
