Come Divine Will, Come Lord Jesus
I AM NOTHING, GOD IS ALL, come Divine Will.
Come Heavenly Father to beat in my heart and move in my Will;
Come Beloved Son to flow in my blood and think in my intellect;
Come Holy Spirit to breathe in my lungs and recall in my memory.

Good Night to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
Oh my Jesus, Celestial Prisoner,
the sun is now setting, the darkness invades the earth,
and you remain alone in the Tabernacle of love.
I seem to see You there in an air of sadness for the loneliness of the night,
because You don’t have around You the crown
of your sons and of your tender spouses,
who may at least keep You company in this voluntary imprisonment.
Oh, my Divine Prisoner,
I too feel my heart breaking for having to leave You,
and I am forced to say Good-bye;
but, what am I saying, oh Jesus – never again Good-bye.
I don’t have the courage to leave You alone.
I say Good-bye with my lips, but not with my heart;
rather, I will leave my heart with You in the Tabernacle.
I will count your heartbeats and I will correspond with my heartbeat of love;
I will number your panting whispers and, to give You comfort,
I will let You rest in my arms.
I will be your vigilant sentry;
I will be on guard to see if anything comes to trouble or sadden You,
not only not to ever leave You alone, but also to take part in all of your pains.
O Heart of my heart! O Love of my love!
Leave this air of sadness, be consoled.
It breaks my heart to see You troubled.
While I say good-bye with my lips, I leave with you my breaths,
my affections, my thoughts, my desires and my movements,
which will form a chain of continuous acts of love, united with Yours,
surrounding You as a crown, and loving You for all.
Aren’t You happy, O Jesus? You seem to say Yes, don’t You?
Good-bye, oh Loving Prisoner –
but, I haven’t finished yet. Before I go,
I also want to leave my body before You;
I intend to make of my flesh
and bones many tiny little pieces in order to form as many lamps
for as many Tabernacles which exist in the world;
and of my blood many little flames to light those lamps.
I intend to put in every Tabernacle my lamp which,
united with the lamp of the Tabernacle that gives You light at night,
will say, I love You, I adore You, I bless You,
I offer reparation and I thank You for me and for all.
Good-bye, oh Jesus – but, listen to one more thing:
let’s make a pact, and the pact will be that we will love each other more.
You will give me more love, enclose me in your love,
make me live of love and bury me in your love.
Let’s tighten more our bond of love.
I will be happy only if You give me your love to be able to really love You.
Good-bye, oh Jesus, bless me – bless all.
Squeeze me to Your Heart, imprison me in your love as I kiss your Heart.
Good-bye, good-bye….

Evening Prayer to the Holy Spirit
O Holy Spirit, most merciful Comforter: You proceed from the Father in a manner beyond our understanding. Come, I beseech You, and take up your abode in my heart. Purify and cleanse me from all sin, and sanctify my soul. Cleanse it from every impurity, water its dryness, melt its coldness, and save it from its sinful ways. Make me truly humble and resigned, that I may be pleasing to You, and that You might abide with me forever.
Most Blessed Light, most Amiable Light, enlighten me. O Rapturous Joy of Paradise, Fount of Purest Delight, My God, give yourself to me and kindle in my innermost soul the fire of Your love. My Lord, instruct, direct, and defend me in all things. Give me strength against all immoderate fears and against despondency. Bestow upon me a true faith, a firm hope, and a sincere and a perfect love. Grant that I always do Thy Most Gracious Will. Amen. (By Saint Antiochus)
Holy Spirit, sleep is a reminder that I am totally and completely dependent upon You. I don’t have infinite strength. I cannot keep working indefinitely. I need sleep to refresh me. As I drift off to sleep, it’s a clear reminder that I am not in control. I need You to sustain me through the night, and I need You to sustain me through my life. Please give me the grace of sleep. Give me the grace of strength. Allow me to wake refreshed in the morning. I depend on You, my good and gracious Father. I trust You to sustain me and to wake me with fresh energy for a new day in the morning. Amen.
Healing Prayer At Bedtime
Lord Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit, go back into my memory as I sleep.
Every hurt that has ever been done to me, heal that hurt.
Every hurt that I have ever caused another person, heal that hurt.
All the relationships that have been damaged in my whole life that I am not aware of, heal those relationships.
But, Lord, if there is anything that I need to do;
If I need to go to a person because he or she is still suffering from my hand…
Bring to my awareness that person, I choose to forgive and I ask to be forgiven.
Remove whatever bitterness may be in my heart, Lord, and fill the empty spaces with your love. Amen.
ACT OF CONSECRATION TO THE HOLY GHOST
On my knees before the great multitude of heavenly witnesses I offer myself, soul and body to You, Eternal Spirit of God. I adore the brightness of Your purity the unerring keenness of Your justice and the might of Your love. You are the Strength and Light of my soul. In You I live and move and am.
I desire never to grieve You by unfaithfulness to grace and I pray with all my heart to be kept from the smallest sin against You. Mercifully guard my every thought and grant that I may always watch for Your light and listen to Your voice and follow Your gracious inspirations. I cling to You and give myself to You and ask You by Your compassion to watch over me in my weakness.
Holding the pierced Feet of Jesus and looking at His Five Wounds and trusting in His Precious Blood and adoring His opened Side and stricken Heart I implore You, Adorable Spirit, Helper of my infirmity, so to keep me in Your grace that I may never sin against You.
Give me grace O Holy Ghost, Spirit of the Father and the Son to say to You always and everywhere “Speak Lord for Your servant heareth.” Amen.

Reminder for 7 Glory Be’s in Honor of My Guardian Angel
Please Guardian Angel if you are still able to protect me during the night, go visit Our Lord at any of the surrounding churches in the tabernacle where He waits for us in voluntary imprisonment as a Celestial prisoner of love.
From Psalm 91:11+
For he will give his angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways.
Ask Guardian Angel to Stand Guard
Guardian Angel, since Trust is my protection against evil, I ask you to stand guard over this vessel of trust that was placed in my heart at conception so that Satan does not come as a thief attempting to steal my trust in Jesus away.
Ask Guardian Angel to Not Let Me Fall into Self-Righteousness
“The one that is full of self-interest, the one that seeks recognition in the world, the one who safeguards his reputation is the soul who must look into his own heart, and ask Me to help him eradicate the inordinate self-love in his heart. .
As I discover inordinances within my heart, full of self-interest, knowing I cannot overcome these faults on my own without the help of grace, I ask my guardian angel not to let me fall into self-righteousness. I ask this especially as I begin to conquer my areas of pride to avoid the trap leading to pharisaical pride.
Prayer to Sleep in God’s Will
(First paragraph taken from the Divine Will Prayer Book)
My Jesus, I sleep/rest with You to give the glory to the Father that You gave Him for those that do not rest in You;
and, while I sleep/rest together with You, I call all souls to rest in your Heart.
I intend in my sleep to make my rounds for all the hearts of creatures to put sin to flight and give your true rest to everyone.
And You, oh My Jesus, do not permit that my poor soul may find any other rest, if not in your Heart and in your Will. Amen.
Mother Mary, I also want to sleep/rest in your Immaculate Heart
to call all souls into that safe refuge.
And to give You the contentment that would be yours if all did enter that safe refuge and live their consecration in littleness, trust and abandonment,
preparing them to receive from You the inheritance of the Kingdom of the Divine Will.
Protect me, Lord During My Sleep
Protect me, Lord, from all dangerous dreams while I sleep. Make me forget all dreams and everything else when I awake, so I can remember only to love You, My Jesus.
My Mother, cover me with your mantle of Purity.
My Guardian Angel, cover me with your protecting wing. Amen.
Permission for Jesus to Perform Rounds
Jesus, I give You permission to have you make Rounds during my sleep…

Save us, Lord, while we are awake; protect us while we sleep; that we may keep watch with Christ and rest with him in peace.
The Lord grant us a quiet night and a perfect end. Amen

(2Cor 10:5) Please then gift me with the recollection to request entering the Divine Will.
REQUEST FOR FERVENT ACT OF CONFESSION
Almighty God, through the merits of the Immaculate Conception, conceived without sin in anticipation of Her living in the Divine Will, I pray for the gift of true contrition, true recognition of how I offend, betray, assault, even wound You and the gift of pure intentions when making my confession and/or act of contrition.
I ask especially for the gift of total recall through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Her well beloved spouse, of each and all sins and offenses committed in order to make a complete and authentic confession and repair for all wounds created by my thought, word or actions.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
ACT OF CONTRITION
Traditional Form
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee,
and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of heaven, and the pains of hell;

Who are all good and deserving of all my love.
(Knowing in the same instant I was offending You, You were loving me with a love no soul could ever imagine.)
I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace,
to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life
by avoiding the near occasion of sin
and rejecting Satan and all his works and all his empty promises.
Amen.
DIVINE WILL ACTUAL CURRENT ACT

We thank you, then, for our fathers. Though human, they are also a reflection of you, Lord God. They are your gift to us. We pray for all fathers today. May they realize the greatness of their vocation and have the strength to live it without fear. Forgive their sins, and keep their eyes raised up to you.
To those who still make this earthy journey with us, give us the grace to love them as we should; and to those whom you have called from this life, give a special place of honor in the heavenly kingdom with you, the Father of all. Our Father (1) Hail Mary (1) Glory be (1)
Wash Me Clean (HL)
Dear Heart of Jesus, have mercy on me. I am sinful, I am proud, I am even jealous. I beg you Heart of Jesus, wash me clean of all my wrongdoing and make me whole again in Your eyes. Take me to rest in Your Sacred Heart that I may spend this NIGHT in peace and love. Protect me with Your Most Precious Blood from all evil. Amen
Prayer for Daily Neglects
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Sacred Heart of Jesus, with all its Love, all its sufferings and all its merits.
First – To expiate all the sins I have committed this day and during all my life. Glory be to the Father and to the Son…!
Second – To purify the good I have done badly this day and during all my life. Glory be to the Father and to the Son…!
Third – To supply for the good I ought to have done and that I have neglected this day and during all my life. Glory be to the Father…!
(A Poor Clare nun, who had just died, appeared to her abbess, who was praying for her, and said to her, “I went straight to heaven, for, by means of this prayer, recited every evening, I paid my debts.”)
St. John Chrysostom’s Deliverance Prayer
O Eternal God, You who have redeemed the race of men from the captivity of the Devil, deliver me, Your servant, from all the workings of unclean spirits. Command the evil and impure spirits and demons to depart from the soul and body of Your servant and not to remain nor hide in me. Let them be banished from me, the creation of Your hands, in Your own holy name, and that of Your only-begotten Son, and of Your life-creating Spirit, so that, after being cleaned from all demonic influence, I may live godly, justly, and righteously and may be counted worthy to receive the Holy Mysteries of Your only-begotten Son and our God, with whom You are blessed and glorified, together with the all-holy and good and life-creating Spirit, now and forever and unto the ages of ages.

Good-bye in the Evening to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
Good Morning to Jesus
O my Jesus, sweet Prisoner of love, here I am before You again. I left You saying good-bye, and now I come back saying good morning. I was anxiously burning to see You again in this prison of love, to give You my yearning regards, my affectionate heartbeats, my ardent desires and all myself in order to transfuse all of myself in You, and to abandon myself in You in perpetual memory and pledge of my love toward You.
Oh my always adorable Sacramental Love, do you know? While I came to give You all of myself, I came also to receive from You all of Yourself. I cannot live without a life, therefore I want yours. All is given to the one who gives all, isn’t it true, O Jesus? Therefore, today I will love with your heartbeat of a passionate lover; I will breathe with your panting breath in search for souls; I will desire your Glory and the good of souls with your immeasurable desires. All the heartbeats of creatures will flow within your divine heartbeat; we will grasp them all and will save them. We won’t let anybody escape, at the cost of any sacrifice, even if I should bear all the pain. If You should push me away I will fling myself more inside You, I will cry out louder in order to plead together with You for the salvation of your children and my brothers.
Oh my Jesus, my Life and my All, how many things does your voluntary imprisonment tell me! But the emblem with which I see You all sealed is the emblem of the souls, while the chains which bind You completely – very strongly – are love. It seems that the words souls and love make You smile, debilitate You and force You to surrender in everything; and I, pondering well these excesses of your love, will be always before You and together with You, with my usual refrains: souls and love.
Therefore, today I want all of You; always together with me in the prayer, in the work, in the pleasures and displeasures, in the food, in the steps, in the sleep – in everything. I am certain that, being unable to obtain anything by myself, with You I will obtain everything; and everything we will do will serve to soothe each one of your pains, to sweeten every bitterness, to give You reparation for any offense, to compensate You for everything, and to plead for any conversion, no matter how difficult and desperate. We will go begging a little love from every heart, to make You more content and happy – isn’t it good this way, O Jesus?
Oh dear Prisoner of love, bind me with your chains, seal me with your love. Please, show me your beautiful face. Oh Jesus, how beautiful You are! Your blond hair braids and sanctifies all my thoughts; your calm forehead, even in the midst of many insults, gives me peace and puts me in perfect calm, even among the greatest storms, my privations of You, and your fusses, which cost me my life. Ah, You know it, but I move on; my heart will tell You this, for it knows how to say it better than I. Oh Love, your azure eyes, sparkling with divine light, sweep me to Heaven and make me forget the earth but, alas, with my greatest pain, my exile continues yet. Hurry, hurry, oh Jesus. Yes, You are beautiful, O Jesus; I seem to see You in that Tabernacle of love. The beauty and the majesty of your face enamors me and makes me see Heaven; your gracious mouth lightly places its ardent kisses every instant. Your gentle voice calls me and invites me to love every moment; your knees sustain me; your arms clasp me with an indissoluble bond, and I will impress my burning kisses, thousands upon thousands, on your adorable face.
Jesus, Jesus, may our will be one, one our love, one our happiness. Never leave me alone, because I am a nothing, and the nothing cannot be without the all. Will You promise me, oh Jesus? It seems that You say Yes. And now, bless me, bless all; and together with the angels, the saints, the sweet Mama and all the creatures, I will say to You: “Good morning, O Jesus, good morning.”
Evening Prayer
Good-bye in the Evening to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
Volume 11
Oh my Jesus, Celestial Prisoner, the sun is now setting, the darkness invades the earth, and you remain alone in the Tabernacle of love. I seem to see You there in an air of sadness for the loneliness of the night, because You don’t have around You the crown of your sons and of your tender spouses, who may at least keep You company in this voluntary imprisonment.
Oh, my Divine Prisoner, I too feel my heart breaking for having to leave You, and I am forced to say Good-bye; but, what am I saying, oh Jesus – never again Good-bye. I don’t have the courage to leave You alone. I say Good-bye with my lips, but not with my heart; rather, I will leave my heart with You in the Tabernacle. I will count your heartbeats and I will correspond with my heartbeat of love; I will number your panting whispers and, to give You comfort, I will let You rest in my arms. I will be your vigilant sentry; I will be on guard to see if anything comes to trouble or sadden You, not only not to ever leave You alone, but also to take part in all of your pains.
O Heart of my heart! O Love of my love! Leave this air of sadness, be consoled. It breaks my heart to see You troubled. While I say good-bye with my lips, I leave with you my breaths, my affections, my thoughts, my desires and my movements, which will form a chain of continuous acts of love, united with Yours, surrounding You as a crown, and loving You for all. Aren’t You happy, O Jesus? You seem to say Yes, don’t You?
Good-bye, oh Loving Prisoner – but, I haven’t finished yet. Before I go, I also want to leave my body before You; I intend to make of my flesh and bones many tiny little pieces in order to form as many lamps for as many Tabernacles which exist in the world; and of my blood many little flames to light those lamps. I intend to put in every Tabernacle my lamp which, united with the lamp of the Tabernacle that gives You light at night, will say, I love You, I adore You, I bless You, I offer reparation and I thank You for me and for all.
Good-bye, oh Jesus – but, listen to one more thing: let’s make a pact, and the pact will be that we will love each other more. You will give me more love, enclose me in your love, make me live of love and bury me in your love. Let’s tighten more our bond of love. I will be happy only if You give me your love to be able to really love You.
Good-bye, oh Jesus, bless me – bless all. Squeeze me to Your Heart, imprison me in your love as I kiss your Heart. Good-bye, good-bye….
… Now, after I wrote these prayers, written here under the influence of Jesus, as the night was approaching, Jesus showed me that He was keeping this “good-bye” and “good morning” inside His Heart, and He told me: “My daughter, they really came out of my Heart. Whoever will recite them with the intention of being with Me as it is expressed in these prayers, I will keep her with Me and in Me, to do anything I do. Not only will I warm her with my love, but I will increase my love towards that soul every time, admitting her to the union with the Divine Life and with my own desires to save all souls.”
I desire Jesus in my mind, Jesus in my lips, Jesus in my heart; I want to look only at Jesus, feel only Jesus, squeeze myself only to Jesus. I want to do everything together with Jesus; play with Jesus, cry with Jesus, write with Jesus; without Jesus I don’t even want to breathe. I will stay here like a fussy little child and do nothing, so that Jesus may come to do everything with me, content to be his toy, abandoning myself to his love, to his chastisements, to his concerns and to his loving jokes, provided that I do everything with Jesus.
See, O my Jesus? This is my will, and You won‟t move me, did You hear? So now come and write with me.

without reserve,
and with boundless confidence,
For you are my Father.
