You gave us the Eucharist
as the memorial of Your suffering and death.

You won for us
and the peace of the kingdom

one God, forever and ever
Amen

Blessed be Jesus in the most holy sacrament

in His divine and human presence
and causes our rejoicing hearts
to hallow His name, now and for ever

"See the glory of the cross: The world was not subdued by iron weapons but by the wood of the cross."
St. Augustine

Heavenly Father
in the garden of Gethsemane
Your Son was deeply grieved even to death
and asked You to spare Him the cross
while still accepting Your holy will.
Permit us to share His agony with Him
and promise to be more faithful
than Judas who betrayed Him
or the disciples who abandoned Him.
Blessed be Jesus, true God and true Man!
Amen

May the glorious passion of our Lord Jesus Christ
bring us to the joys of paradise
Amen

Morning Prayer

O God, come to my assistance.
O Lord, make haste to help me.
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
For by the Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
Amen amen

"On that day we call His birthday, a flock of shepherds from the Jews saw Him. But this very day, which has been tagged Epiphany or Manifestation, an embassy of Magi from the gentiles paid their respects to Him. Angels did the announcing in the first instance; in the second, a star did the honors. Angels hung around the Heavens, as it were, with the stars as their pendants. But with both voices over, as the Psalmist might say, the Heavens just couldn't keep the glory of God to themselves'.
Saint Augustine  

Morning Prayer

Blessed is the womb that bore You, O Christ,
and the breasts that nursed You.
In the womb of the Mother
resides the Wisdom of the Father

Come and listen, all who honor God, and I will tell you what he has done for me.
 I cried to him for help; I praised him with songs.
  If I had ignored my sins, the Lord would not have listened to me.
  But God has indeed heard me; he has listened to my prayer.
 I praise God, because he did not reject my prayer or keep back his constant love from me.

Psalm 66: 16-20

whose face has become unsightly in Your eyes.
Look instead upon the Face of Your Beloved Son,
for this is the Face of Him
in Whom You are well pleased.
We now offer You this Holy Face,
covered with shame and disfigured by bloody bruises
in reparation for the crimes of our age
in order to appease Your anger,
justly provoked against us.
Because Your Divine Son, our Redeemer,
has taken upon His Head all the sins of His members,
that they might be spared,
we now beg of You, Eternal Father,
to grant us mercy.

Heavenly Father,
In the garden of Gethsemane
your son was deeply grieved even to death
and asked you to spare him the cross
while still accepting your holy will.
Permit us to share his agony with him
and promise to be more faithful
than Judas who betrayed him
or the disciples who abandoned him.
Blessed be Jesus, true God, and true man!

May the glorious passion of our Lord Jesus Christ
bring us to the joys of paradise
Amen

O God, come to my assistance.
O Lord, make haste to help me.
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you.
For by your Holy Cross you have redeemed the world.
Amen

To Love God above All Things.
 
Heavenly Father,
May I love You in all things and above all things.
May I reach the joy you have prepared for me in Heaven.
Nothing is good that is against Your Will, and all is good that comes from Your hand
Place in my heart a desire to please You and fill my mind with thoughts of
Your love, so that I may grow in your wisdom and enjoy Your peace.
Amen!

THE PRAYER,
O LORD MY GOD
By Saint Anselm.


O Lord my God.
Teach my heart this day
where and how to find you.

You have made me and re-made me,
and you have bestowed on me
all the good things I possess,
and still I do not know you.
I have not yet done
that for which I was made.

Teach me to seek you,
for I cannot seek you
unless you teach me,
or find you
unless you show yourself to me.

Let me seek you in my desire;
let me desire you in my seeking.
Let me find you by loving you;
let me love you when I find you.

"Be at Peace"
Do not look forward in fear to the changes of life;
Rather look to them with full hope that as they arise,
     God, whose very own you are, will lead you safely
     through all things;
And when you cannot stand it, God will carry you
     in His arms.
Do not fear what may happen tomorrow;
The same everlasting Father who cares for you today
     will take care of you today and every day.
He will either shield you from suffering or will give you
     unfailing strength to bear it.
Be at peace and put aside all anxious thoughts and
     imaginations.

Morning Prayer

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.
Amen.

Loving God,

 who sees in us nothing that you have not given yourself,
make my body healthy and agile,
my mind sharp and clear,
 my heart joyful and contented,
my soul faithful and loving.
And surround me with the company of men and angels
who share my devotion to you.
Above all, let me live in your presence,
for with you all fear is banished,
and there is only harmony and peace.
Let every day combine the beauty of spring,
the brightness of summer,
 the abundance of autumn,
 and the repose of winter.
And at the end of my life on earth,
 grant that I may come to see and to know you
in the fullness of your glory.

Help me Lord, to spend the day with gratitude for all the gifts

Help me never to misuse these gifts.

Lord, as I appreciate the health which I enjoy, I remember those of us who can neither see nor hear; those brothers and sisters of ours who are disabled in so many ways; the helpless and the bedridden.
I remember Lord, those who can no longer reason; their minds darkened and their senses gone.

And with Thy Body all torn, and Thy Heart broken, and the bowels of Thy Mercy open to redeem us, Thou didst expire.
By this Precious Death, I beg of Thee O King of Saints, to comfort me and help me to resist the devil, the flesh and the world, so that being dead to the world, I may live for Thee alone.

Then  I will sprinkle clean water on  you
You shall be cleansed of all your impurity
And of all your idols I will cleanse you.

And I will give you a new heart
and a new spirit I will put within you.
I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh
and give you a heart of flesh.

I will put my spirit within you
And make  you walk according to my laws
And my judgements you shall keep and observe.

Such a beautiful passage from Ezechiel, I have been reading and rereading it since you posted it.

I loved it too. I did not know it was from Ezechiel,
It is one of the Antiphons of the the Blessed Virgin Mary.
