Morning Offerings:
O MY GOD! I offer Thee all my actions of this day for the intentions and for the glory of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I desire to sanctify every beat of my heart, my every thought, my simplest works, by uniting them to Its Infinite merits; and I wish to make reparation for my sins by casting them into the furnace of Its Merciful Love.
O MY GOD! I ask of Thee for myself and for those whom I hold dear, the grace to fulfill perfectly Thy Holy Will, to accept for love of Thee the joys and sorrows of this passing life, so that we may one day be united together in Heaven for all Eternity.
O MY GOD, Most Holy Trinity, I desire to love Thee and to make Thee loved—to labor for the glory of Holy Church by saving souls here upon earth and by delivering those suffering in Purgatory. I desire to fulfill perfectly Thy Holy Will, and to reach the degree of glory Thou hast prepared for me in Thy Kingdom. In a word, I wish to be holy, but knowing how helpless I am, I beseech Thee, my God, to be Thyself my holiness. I offer Thee the infinite merits of my Saviour, begging Thee to behold me only through the Eyes of Jesus. I offer Thee all the merits of the Saints, together with all their acts of love, as well as those of the Angels. Lastly I offer Thee the love and the merits of the Blessed Virgin, my dearest Mother. To Her I commit this Oblation, praying Her to present it to Thee.
Amen.

“One evening, at a loss for words to tell Jesus how much I loved Him and how much I wished that He might be everywhere served and glorified, I reflected with pain that not one act of love would ever mount upwards from out of the depths of hell. Then I cried out that willingly would I consent to see myself plunged into that place of torment and blasphemy, in order that He might be loved there eternally. That could not really glorify Him since He desires only our happiness, but love makes one want to say a thousand foolish things. If I spoke thus, it was not that I did not long for heaven; but then, my heaven was none other than Love, and in my fervor I felt that nothing could separate me from the Divine object of my love. . . .”

May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable,
most incomprehensible and ineffable Name of God
be forever praised, blessed, loved, adored
and glorified in Heaven, on earth,
and under the earth,
by all the creatures of God,
and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Amen.
