THANK YOU so much for putting the Novena up each day, Danielle. Only because I check into Faith and Family each day am I managing to say the whole Novena!
Meek and Humble Souls and the Souls of Little Children
Divine Mercy Novena Day 6
Posted by Danielle Bean in Faith on Wednesday, April 27, 2011 6:59 AM
Today is the sixth day of the Divine Mercy novena that will end on Divine Mercy Sunday, this coming Sunday.
You can read more about the background of the Divine Mercy at EWTN.
I will be posting the prayers of the novena each day here, as a reminder for each of us to participate in this powerful novena:
Today bring to Me the Meek and Humble Souls and the Souls of Little Children, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.
Most Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said, “Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart.” Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father’s favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
