A Prayer to Saint Therese De Lisieux for Guidance

Govern by all Thy Wisdom, O Lord,

so that my soul may always be serving Thee as Thou dost

Will,

and not as I may choose.

Do not punish me, I beseech Thee,

by granting that which I wish

or ask if it offended Thy Love,

which would always live in me.

Let me die to myself,

so that I may love Thee.

Let me live to Thee,

Who art in Thyself,

the True Life.

Dear St. Therese,

guide me in your Little Way,

so that I may ascend to the heights and happiness of

Heaven.
