Our Morning Offering – 10 January
Prayer to the Holy Name – St. Alphonsus Liguori
O my Jesus, You are the Saviour who has given Your blood and Your life for me, I pray You to write Your adorable name on my poor heart; so that having it always imprinted in my heart by love, I may also have it ever on my lips, by invoking it in all my necessities. If the devil tempts me, Your name will give me strength to resist him; if I lose confidence, Your name will animate me to hope; if I am in affliction, Your name will comfort me, by reminding me of all You have endured for me. If I find myself cold in Your love, Your name will inflame me by reminding me of the love You have shown me. I have fallen into so many sins because I did not call on You; from henceforth Your name shall be my defense, my refuge, my hope, my only consolation, my only love. Thus do I hope to live and so do I hope to die, having Your name always on my lips. Amen
