Devotions
to
the
Sacred
Heart
A
PRAYER
TO
THE
SACRED
HEART
O
heart
of
Jesus,
grant
me
an
increase
of
faith
in
you;
a
strong
faith,
to
know
you;
a
loving
faith,
to
appreciate
you;
a
trusting
faith,
to
turn
to
you
in
every
want
and
every
sorrow.
O
loving
heart,
I
commend
to
you
my
thoughts,
words
and
works
that
you
may
inspire
and
guide
them;
my
affections,
intentions
and
desires,
that
you
may
purify
and
direct
them;
my
dearly-bought
soul,
that
you
may
sanctify
and
save
it;
my
last
sigh,
that
you
may
receive
it
united
to
your
own.
Amen.
LOVE
AND
CONSECRATION
(The
Sacred
Heart
to
St.
Margaret
Mary
Alacoque)
"I
am
consumed
by a
burning
thirst
to
be
loved
by
all
in
the
Blessed
Sacrament;
but
I
find
scarcely
anyone
who
is
inclined
to
fulfill
my
desire,
and
to
make
me a
return
of
love...
If
you
only
knew
how
I
thirst
to
be
loved
by
all,
you
would
spare
nothing
that
this
might
be
accomplished.
I
thirst
with
the
desire
of
being
loved."
