TODAY IS DAY 4: JANUARY 28th
St. Thomas Aquinas, Pray for Us
[ZOSIA]: (DAY 4)
Let's begin: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit... Amen.
VIRGIN MOST HOLY, in offering your divine Son to His Eternal Father, you did gladden all the Court of Heaven: present our poor hearts to God, that He, by His grace, may keep them ever free from mortal sin.
Most Compassionate Jesus, Thou art the Light of the whole world. Receive into the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart the souls of pagans and unbelievers who as yet do not know Thee. Let the rays of Thy grace enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Thy wonderful mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart.
May the light of Thy love enlighten the souls in darkness; Grant that these souls will know Thee and, together with us, praise Thy mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon the souls of all unbelievers and of those who as yet do not know Thee, but who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. By the grace of the Holy Spirit draw them to the light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love Thee. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Thy mercy for endless ages. Amen.

We offer Thee, O Lord Jesus, this fourth decade in honor of Thy Presentation in the temple by the hands of Mary, and we ask of Thee, through this mystery and through the intercession of Thy Blessed Mother, the gift of wisdom and purity of heart and body.
