Divine Mercy Prayer Short Collection

Non-Catholic Version of Grace for Forgiveness of Sins and Punishment

Act of Contrition

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;
but most of all because they offend Thee, my God,
Who are all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace,
to confess my sins, to do penance,
and to amend my life.

Amen.

Spiritual Communion

My Jesus,
I believe that You are present …
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen.

A Prayer to This Affect

Lord Jesus Christ, you promised St Faustina

that the soul that has been to confession

I am unable so I made an act of contrition

And the soul that has received Holy Communion

I am unable so I made a Spiritual Communion

Will receive complete forgiveness of all sins and punishment

And please Lord, Jesus Christ, give me this grace.
