SEPTEMBER 5 SANTA TERESA DI CALCUTTA. Prayer to ask for a grace

Saint Teresa of Calcutta, in your yearning desire to love Jesus as it has never been loved before, you gave yourself completely to Him, without ever refusing anything. In union with the Immaculate Heart of Mary, you accepted the call to quench His infinite thirst for love and souls and to become the bearer of His love for the poorest of the poor. With loving trust and total abandonment you have fulfilled His will, testifying the joy of belonging totally to Him. You have become so intimately united with Jesus, your crucified Spouse, that He, suspended on the cross, deigned to share with you the agony of His Heart. Saint Teresa, you who have promised to continuously bring the light of love to those on earth, pray that we too wish to satisfy the ardent thirst of Jesus with passionate love, joyfully sharing His sufferings, and serving Him with all heart in our brothers and sisters, especially in those who, above all, are "unloved" and "unwanted". Amen.

PRAYER

(to be repeated every day)

Saint Teresa of Calcutta,
you have allowed the trimmed love of Jesus on the Cross

to become a living flame within you,
so as to be for all light of His Love.
Get from the heart of Jesus (expose the grace for which we pray ..)
Teach me to let Jesus penetrate me

and take possession of my whole being, so completely,
that my life is also an irradiation of His light

and His love for others.
Amen

Immaculate Heart of Mary,

Because of our joy, pray for me.
Saint Teresa of Calcutta, pray for me.
"Jesus is my All in All"
