A Christmas Prayer About Christ's Gift Of
Compassion
Most Precious Lord Jesus, Gentle And Wonderful God, Truly Awesome And
Ever-present Holy Spirit,
Precious Jesus, I love you.
I love you, Lord Jesus.
I need you every hour.
I try to find you with my eyes but I cannot see you.
I know in my mind your love is within me.
Touch my heart so I may be open to your presence within me.
Open my heart so I may receive your love.
In all your ways of working in the world, help me see the needs and
suffering of those around me.
Let my heart be touched by the needs of others.
Let me be so moved by their circumstances I reach out to them and to those
who are needy.
Open my heart to your sacrifice for me upon the Cross.
Do not let my mind be polluted by the darkness lurking about me.
Do not let me or any of my loved ones be touched by the darkness wanting
to destroy us.
Just as you gave to others, help me also give.
When my heart hurts, help me help others whose heart also hurts.
Whenever there are needs unfilled in others, help me help others fill
those needs.
All these things I humbly pray in the name of my most Blessed Lord Jesus
Christ, my Mighty God, and my Ever-present Holy Spirit upon whom I can
rely.
Amen
