Lord, use my little sufferings to purify me and to bring me closer to the transforming union. Use them in your heavenly economy to purchase the grace necessary for the salvation of all our family. Lord give me more willingness to practice self-mortification and help me remember to offer these and other sufferings for their conversion.

Practise and live the Holy Mass!
You may be helped by a consideration which that priest, in love, used to repeat to himself: “Is it possible, my God, to take part in the Holy Mass and not be a saint?”
And he would continue, “Each day, in fulfilment of an old promise, I will remain hidden in the Wound of Our Lord’s Side!”
Shouldn’t you do the same?– St. Josemaria Escriva, The Forge, #934 —- Lord, may every Eucharist I receive, transform me more into Your image!
