My Lord Jesus Christ, who for the love which You bear
us, remain night and day in this Sacrament full of compassion
and love, awaiting, calling, and welcoming all who come to visit
You, I believe that You are present in the Sacrament of the
Altar. I adore You from the abyss of my nothingness, and I
thank You for all the graces which You have bestowed upon me
and in particular for having given me Yourself in this Sacrament,
for having given me Your most holy Mother Mary as my
Advocate, and for having called me to visit You in this church. I
now salute Your most loving Heart; and this for three ends:
first, in thanksgiving for this great gift; secondly, to make
amends to You for all the outrages which You receive in this
Sacrament from all Your enemies; thirdly, I intend by this visit to
adore You in all the places on earth in which You are present in
this Sacrament and in which You are the least reserved and the
most abandoned. My Jesus, I love You with all my heart. I
grieve for having hitherto so many times offended Your infinite
goodness. I purpose by Your grace never more to offend You
for the time to come. And now, miserable and unworthy though
I be, I consecrate myself to You without reserve; I give You
renounce my entire will, affections, my desires, and all that I
possess. Henceforward, dispose of me and of all that I have as
You please. All that I ask of You and desire is Your holy love,
final perseverance and the perfect accomplishment of Your will.
I recommend to You the souls in Purgatory, and especially those
who had the greatest devotion to the most Blessed Sacrament,
and to the most Blessed Virgin Mary. I also recommend to You
all poor sinners. Finally, my dear Savior, I unite all my affections
with the affections of Your most loving Heart, and I offer them,
thus united, to Your Eternal Father, and beseech Him in Your
name to vouchsafe for Your love, to accept and grant them.
Amen.
