Our Morning Offering – 25 August – The Memorial of St Louis IX (1214-1270) – King of France

Prayer inspired by St Louis’ Last Instructions

to his Eldest Son, Philip

(Perhaps Philip prayed thus)

O God, we love You. We want to do nothing to displease You. If we have troubles, let us thank You. If we don’t, we also humbly thank You. Let us look for ways to grow closer to You, whether in Confession, prayer, or at Mass. Let us open our hearts to afflicted people and do what we can to comfort them. Let us look for ways to improve our society. Thank You for friends who help us bear our burdens and help us grow in holiness. Let us turn away from gossip or swearing. Let us always do what is right for those we serve and promote peace among our neighbours. Let us be quick to defend our Faith. O Holy Trinity, all You holy saints, please defend us from all evils. Please give us grace to do Your will always, so that You are honoured and so we may be with You forever. Amen
