Day 9: From my heart to your Heart
(Mt 6, 21, Jn 19, 34, Lc 8, 15, Mt 22, 37, 1 Peter 3, 3-4)
V/ Sacred Heart of Jesus
R/ Forgive our trespasses as we also forgive those who trespass against us.
V/ Sacred Heart of Jesus,
R/ Help us to reconcile with ourselves and with others.
V/ Sacred Heart of Jesus,
R/ Help us love each other as you have loved us.
V/ For the times we have abused our authority.
R/ Forgive us Lord.
V/ For the times we have abused our position as a spiritual guide or director to seek compensation, to control others, or to do what we want.
R/ Forgive us Lord.
V/ For the deviations of our hearts that are our distrust, our suspicion, our lack of full acceptance of each other.
R/ Forgive us Lord.
V/ For the unfair expectations that we place on the shoulders of our brothers and sisters, making them bear the heavy yoke of our demands.
R/ Forgive us Lord.
V/ Let us pray: Sacred Heart of Jesus, you love us deeply and you know every corner of our interior: transform our heart to have your same feelings, your same way of listening, of tasting, of seeing, of speaking, of touching, of walking, thinking and remembering. Purify us from within in the living flames of your Love so that we can reconcile ourselves with ourselves and with others.
R/ Amen.
