Sacred Heart of Jesus, teach me to forget myself perfectly, since that is the only way I can enter you. Since everything I do in the future will be yours, see to it that I do nothing that is not worthy of you. Teach me what I must do to attain the purity of your love, which you have inspired in me.
I feel a great desire to please you and a great powerlessness to achieve it without a great light and a very special help that I can expect only from you. Do your will in me, Lord; I am opposed to it, I feel it well; but I would like, it seems to me, not to be opposed to it. It is up to you to do everything, divine Heart of Jesus Christ; you alone will have all the glory of my sanctification, if I make myself holy; that seems clearer to me than day; but it will be a great glory for you, and it is for that alone that I want to desire perfection. So be it.
