(Given to Sister Marie of St. Peter by our Lord)
2) By My Face you shall obtain the conversion of many sinners. 3) Nothing you ask in making this offering will be refused to you. 4) If you knew how pleasing the sight of My Face is to My Father 5) As in a kingdom you can procure all you wish for with a coin marked with the king's effigy, so in the Kingdom of Heaven you will obtain all you desire with the precious coin of My Holy Face. 6) I will print My Divine Likeness on the souls of those who honor My Most Holy Countenance. 7) All those who honor My Holy Face in a spirit of reparation, will by so doing perform the office of the pious Veronica. 8) According to the care you take in making reparation to My Face disfigured by blasphemies, so will I take care of yours which has been disfigured by sin. I will reprint therein My Image, and render it as beautiful as it was on leaving the Baptismal font. 9) All those who defend My cause in this work of reparation, by words, by prayers, or in writing, I will defend them before My Father. At their death, I will purify their souls by effacing all the blots of sin, and will restore them to their primitive beauty. |

ACT OF PRAISE AND REPARATION GIVEN TO SR. MARIE: May the Most Holy, Most Sacred, Most Adorable, Most Mysterious, and unutterable Name of God be always praised, blessed, loved, adored, and glorified, in Heaven, on earth, and under the earth, by all the creature of God, and by the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. O, Lord Jesus Christ, in presenting ourselves before Thy Adorable Face, to ask of Thee the graces of which we stand in most need, we beseech Thee, above all, to give us that interior disposition of never refusing, at any time, to do what Thou requirest of us by Thy Holy Commandments and Divine Inspirations. Amen. O, good Jesus, who hadst said: "Ask, and you shall receive. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you." give us that faith which obtains all, or supply in us what we may be deficient; grant us, by the pure effect of Thy Charity, and for Thy Eternal Glory, the graces which we need, and which we look for from Thy Infinite Mercy. Amen. Be merciful to us, o my God, and reject not our prayers, when amid our afflictions, we call on Thy Holy Name, and seek with love and confidence Thy Adorable Face. Amen. O, Almighty and Eternal God, look upon the Face of Thy Son Jesus. We present It to Thee with confidence, to implore Thy pardon. The All-Merciful Advocate opens His mouth to plead our cause; hearken to His cries, behold His tears, O God, and through His infinite merits, hearken to Him when He intercedes for us poor miserable sinners. Amen. Adorable Face of my Jesus, my only love, my light, and my life, grant that I may serve, know, and love Thee alone, that I may live with Thee, of Thee, by Thee, and for Thee. Amen. Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Adorable Face of Thy Beloved Son for the honor and glory of Thy Name, for the conversion of sinners, and the salvation of the dying. Amen. O, Divine Jesus, through Thy Face and Name, save us. our hope is in the virtue of Thy Holy Name. Amen.
O, Love of the Sacred Heart, consume me with Thy fire. (Say 3 Glory Be's in honor of the Divine Will, Memory, and Understanding.) O, Seat of Divine Wisdom, and guiding Power, which governs all the motions and love of the Sacred Heart, may all minds know Thee, all hearts love Thee, and all tongues praise Thee, now and for evermore. Amen. |
