"THE GOLDEN ARROW"
An Act of Praise and Reparation
Dictated by Our lord to Sr. Mary of
St. Peter
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.
PRAYER
0 LORD Jesus Christ, in presenting ourselves before Thine adorable Face to ask of Thee the graces of which we stand most in need, we beseech Thee, above all, to grant 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.
0 GOOD Jesus, who hast said, "Ask and
you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened
to you," grant us, O Lord, that faith which obtains all, or supply in us
what may be deficient; grant us, by the pure effect of Thy charity, and
for Thine eternal glory, the graces which we need and which we look for
from Thine infinite mercy.
Amen.
BE MERCIFUL to us, O my God, and reject
not our prayers, when amid our afflictions, we call upon Thy Holy Name
and seek with love and confidence Thine adorable Face.
Amen.
0 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, 0 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 know, love and serve 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 for the
salvation of the dying.
0 DIVINE Jesus, through Thy face and
Name, save us. Our hope is in the virtue of Thy Holy Name!
Prayer to Reproduce the
Image of God in Our Souls:
I salute You, I adore You, and I love You; Oh Adorable Face of my beloved Jesus as the noble stamp of the Divinity! Completely surrendering my soul to Thee I most more be reproduced by its imprint in our souls. Amen.
May God bless you and keep you. May God show you His Face. (Numbers 6 : 24-26)
Contemplation:
When one considers that the Holy Face of Jesus, is the very manifestation of the Godhead, visually represented for us in the person of Christ Jesus, indelibly stamped upon His Sacred Humanity, then a true and sincere devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus can be seen for what it should always be, both a noble goal to achieve in our humble hearts, and a vital necessity in our lives. Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus is devotion to the Godhead Himself, the very essence of God's Divine Nature; His omnipotent power, His supreme authority and dominion over all creation. So henceforth let us look upon the Face of God with all the love and affection in our whole being and beg God to give us the grace to always love Him; and let us do so in the name of Christ Jesus, for the glory of God the Father Almighty.
