CONSECRATION
TO THE HOLY CHILD OF PRAGUE
O
Divine Child Jesus, only-begotten Son of the Father, You are the
true light that enlightens everyone coming into this world. It is
through You that I am, it is through You that all things have been
made, and without You nothing would be. It is therefore just that
I devote myself to You without reserve.
In
gratitude for all the love with which You love me, I devote to you
all the love my heart is capable of. I ardently desire to love you
still more, to offer You a heart less unworthy of You. Accept this
ardent desire, O amiable Child-God, and kindly bless it.
You
have suffered for us and have borne Your infirmities, in order that
we might one day deserve to be associated with Your eternal happiness.
I want to unite my sufferings to Yours, so that You may give them
merit and they may be sanctified. As You have been weeping for me,
because of my sins, help me by Your grace to weep for them myself.
I also
devote to You all my joys. I only have the ambition and the will
to seek those pleasing to your service, by the practise of the virtues
taught in the mysteries of Your Divine Childhood. I beg You to help
me by Your grace to acquire the gentleness, the humility, the childlike
simplicity, the filial confidence and the perfect obedience, of
which you give me such a splendid example.
May
I progress in holiness and one day possess the rewards promised
in heaven to those who practise the lessons of your Holy Childhood.
Amen
