Hi everyone,I found this prayer on a small little piece of paper,it looked torned,probably torned from a book.Anyway here it is…

A True Letter Of Our Saviour Jesus Christ

Consecrating The Drops Of Blood which Our Lord Jesus lost on His way to Calvary.

To all those faithful who shall recite for 3 years,each day,2 Our Fathers,Hail Mary and Glory Be,in honour of the drops of blood I lost,I will concede the following five graces.

1st The plenary indulgence and remittance of your sins

2nd You will be free from the pains of purgatory

3rd If you should die before completing the said 3 years,for you it will be the same as if
you had completed them.

4th It will be shed upon your death the same as if you had shed all your blood for the Holy Faith

5th I will descend from Heaven to take your soul and that of your relatives,until the forth generation.

Spread this prayer in honour for the blood lost by our Lord Jesus.
God bless you and happy day.JLU

 

[Luke_K]

Not to be cynical, but we should be wary of specific formula prayers which promise graces beyond those of the sacraments. A plenary indulgence requires confession, total detachment from sin, reception of the Eucharist, and a prayer for the Pope. Remittance of sins requires confession if at all available. And concerning the fifth promise, the salvation of your relatives depends on their free will.

There’s nothing wrong with saying this prayer, and the blood of Christ is great and holy to contemplate on, but I think these formula prayers which focus on specific promises for saying them tend to draw us into scrupulosity, superstition, and exterior rather than interior holiness.

May God’s Peace, Love & Mercy be with you and to all!

You can find that prayer in the Pieta prayer booklet. I for one prayed that prayer before but have decided years ago that instead of honoring only the Most Precious drops of Blood that Our Good Lord Jesus has lost on His way to Calvary & saying a set number of Our Father, Hail Mary & Gory Be, I would instead also honor His torn Flesh, the sacred particles of Eucharistic Host that ever have, do & will exist, His Sacred Passion & Death on the Cross, His Sacred Humanity, His Sacred Incarnation, His Sacred Divinity, His Divine Love, His Holy Face, each and every part of His Most Sacred Body. I included that as part of my daily offering so that everything that I do every moment of my life will also be for that intention.

I personally do not think of what I will gain by saying the said prayers or any other prayers but only think of giving adoration, honor & glory to God.

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful devotion to honor Our Good Lord Jesus Christ.

May God bless you and your loved ones always!

Praying for you and for all!
