Dear Lord, we know you hear our prayers. Meet our needs according to Thy will. Amen.

 

[Jonathan_V]

I’ll say a Rosary today for everyone’s intentions.

 

[Pier]

Our Father,
Who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come,
Thy Will be done,
on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

 

[sungirl]

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, we fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother. To you do we come, before you we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word incarnate, despise not our petitions but, in your mercy, hear and answer us. Amen.

Lord, hear our prayers

**. . . . . .Third Day"Today bring to Me all Devout and Faithful Souls, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. These souls brought Me consolation on the Way of the Cross. They were a drop of consolation in the midst of an ocean of bitterness."
Most merciful Jesus, from the treasury of **Your **mercy, You impart Your graces in great abundance to each and all. Receive us into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart and never let us escape from It. We beg this grace of You by that most wondrous love for the heavenly Father with which Your Heart burns so fiercely.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon the inheritance of Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, grant them Your blessing and surround them with **Your **constant protection. Thus may they never fail in love or lose the treasure of the holy faith, but rather, with all the hosts of Angels :angel1: and Saints, may they glorify Your boundless mercy for endless ages. Amen.

(The Chaplet of Divine Mercy may also be offered each day for the day’s intention, but is not strictly necessary to the Novena.

Fourth Day
"Today bring to Me those who do not believe in God and those who do not know Me, ** I** was thinking also of them during My bitter Passion, and their future zeal comforted My Heart . Immerse them in the ocean of My mercy."
Most compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the whole world. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who do not believe in God and of those who as yet do not know You. Let the rays of **Your **grace enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Your wonderful mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode which is **Your **Most Compassionate Heart .

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who do not believe in You, and of those who as yet do not know You, but who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love You. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of **Your **mercy for endless ages. Amen.

Our* Lord’s **

original words here were “the pagans.” Since the pontificate of Pope John XXIII, the Church has seen fit to replace this term with clearer and more appropriate terminology.

Fifth Day
"Today bring to Me the Souls of those who have separated themselves from My Church*, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. During My bitter Passion they tore at My Body and Heart , that is, My Church. As they return to unity with the Church My wounds heal and in this way they alleviate My Passion."
Most merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself You do not refuse light to those who seek it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Church. Draw them by Your light into the unity of the Church, and do not let them escape from the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart ; but bring it about that they, too, come to glorify the generosity of Your mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Son’s Church, who have squandered Your blessings and misused Your graces by obstinately persisting in their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Your Own Son and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in His Most Compassionate Heart . Bring it about that they also may glorify Your great mercy for endless ages. Amen.

Our* Lord’s**

original words here were “heretics and schismatics,” since He spoke to Saint Faustina within the context of her times. As of the Second Vatican Council, Church authorities have seen fit not to use those designations in accordance with the explanation given in the Council’s Decree on Ecumenism (n.3). Every pope since the Council has reaffirmed that usage. Saint Faustina herself, her heart always in harmony with the mind of the Church, most certainly would have agreed. When at one time, because of the decisions of her superiors and father confessor, she was not able to execute** Our Lord’s **inspirations and orders, she declared: “I will follow Your will insofar as You will permit me to do so through Your representative. O my Jesus " I give priority to the voice of the Church over the voice with which You speak to me” (497). The Lord confirmed her action and praised her for it.

Sixth Day
Today bring to Me the Meek and Humble Souls and the Souls of Little Children , and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart . They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole **torrents **of grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.

Most merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said, "Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart." Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father’s favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet :flowers: before the throne of God: God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart , O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. **Father **of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.

A PRAYER
FOR THE
VIRTUE OF TRUST**

Increase our trust in Thee Lord ***
Jesus***:
Thou art the Way, the Truth and the Life.
We have placed our lives in Thy holy hands dear Saviour;
trusting Thee to guide and help us along life’s ofttimes difficult pathways.
May our souls reflect Thy holy light within and around us.
Jesus’ our Saviour and our God;
We know Thou art worthy of our trust.
Beloved Jesus, keep us close to Thee,
as we prayerfully trust in Thee
to meet us as God’s frail children at all points of need
that come up in life as we grow in thee.
Guide us as Thy servants as to how to share our faith and trust in Thee
more and more with others,
So Thy holy saving love can be known and made available
to all dear Lord!
Amen.

. . . all for Jesus+

Seventh Day**

Today bring to Me** the Souls who especially venerate and glorify My Mercy*, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls sorrowed most over My Passion and entered most deeply into My Spirit. They are living images of My Compassionate Heart . These souls will shine with a special brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the fire of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour of death.​

Most merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Your mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their hearts, overflowing with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God:

Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, Who said to them that during their life, but especially at the hour of death, the souls who will venerate this fathomless mercy of His, He, Himself, will defend as His Glory. Amen.

*The text leads one to conclude that in the first prayer directed to Jesus

, Who is the Redeemer, it is “victim” souls and contemplatives that are being prayed for; those persons, that is, that voluntarily offered themselves to God for the salvation of their neighbor (see Col 1:24; 2 Cor 4:12). This explains their close union with the Savior and the extraordinary efficacy that their invisible activity has for others. In the second prayer, directed to the Father from Whom comes "every worthwhile gift and every genuine benefit,"we recommend the “active” souls, who promote devotion to The Divine Mercy and exercise with it all the other works that lend themselves to the spiritual and material uplifting of their brethren.

. . . all for Jesus+
. . . thank You Dear Lord God our Saviour+
. . . thank you Blessed Virgin Mary our Mother+
. . . thank you Holy Mother Church+
. . .* Sacred Heart of Jesus**+
. . . have mercy+​
