Act of Reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
O Most Holy Virgin Mother, we listen with grief to the complaints of your Immaculate Heart surrounded with the thorns placed therein at every moment by the blasphemies and ingratitude of ungrateful humanity. We are moved by the ardent desire of loving you as Our Mother and of promoting a true devotion to your Immaculate Heart.
We therefore kneel before you to manifest the sorrow we feel for the grievances that people cause you, and to atone by our prayers and sacrifices for the offenses with which they return return your love. Obtain for them and for us the pardon of so many sins. Hasten the conversion of sinners that they may love Jesus and cease to offend the Lord, already so much offended. Turn your eyes of mercy toward us, that we may love God with all our heart on earth and enjoy Him forever in heaven. Amen.

Prayer To The Lord Jesus In Childlike Trust
Jesus I love You
JESUS
How often I think that I am too busy to pray!
My days are over-loaded!
And yet,
JESUS
You surely don’t expect me to be so preoccupied. How could I not have the time to think of You?
You are always at my side,
JESUS
You alone are my strength, my courage, my support.
I want to make a habit,
JESUS
Of speaking to You as a Friend,
To confide my joys and sorrows.
And so, from the bottom of my heart,
I want to say simply:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
When I am tired, help me still to say:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
When I find it hard to forgive, I need only to repeat:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
When darkness comes on me, and I don’t know where You are, I will call on You, and say:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
My daily task will become easier, and my work will become a prayer which says:
JESUS, I LOVE You!
What trouble can shake me-What suffering overcome me if I can always repeat:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
For the joys You give me-for the graces You shower on me, my Thank You will always be:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
And simply to please You, for no other reason, let me often say:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
And when the evening of my life comes, and You invite me home, let me say for one last time here below, before I depart:
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
And when You call me for judgement, let me meet You my God as Father and not as a Judge. Be merciful Lord because I am Your child and how many time I have said.
JESUS, I LOVE YOU!
