Novena Prayer

Divine Jesus, You have said,
"Ask and you shall receive; 
seek and you shall find; 
knock and it shall be 
opened to you." Behold me 
kneeling at Your feet, filled 
with a lively faith and 
confidence in the promises 
dictated by Your Sacred 
Heart to Saint Margaret Mary. 
I come to ask this favor: 
(mention your request).

To whom can I turn if not to You,
Whose Heart is the source
of all graces and merits?
Where should I seek if not
in the treasure which contains
all the riches of Your kindness
and mercy? Where should I knock
if not at the door through which
God gives Himself to us and
through which we go to God? 
I have recourse to You, 
Heart of Jesus. In You I find 
consolation when afflicted, 
protection when persecuted, 
strength when burdened 
with trials, and light in doubt 
and darkness.

Dear Jesus, I firmly believe
that You can grant me the grace
I implore, even though it should
require a miracle. You have only
to will it and my prayer will be
granted. I admit that I am
most unworthy of Your favors,
but this is not a reason for
me to be discouraged.
You are the God of mercy,
and You will not refuse a
contrite heart. Cast upon me a
look of mercy, I beg of You,
and Your kind Heart will find
in my miseries and weakness
a reason for granting my prayer.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, whatever
maybe Your decision with regard
to my request, I will never
stop adoring, loving, praising,
and serving You. My Jesus,
be pleased to accept this my
act of perfect resignation to
the decrees of Your adorable
Heart, which I sincerely desire
may be fulfilled in and by me
and all Your creatures forever.

Grant me the grace for which
I humbly implore You through
the Immaculate Heart of Your
most sorrowful Mother. You
entrusted me to her as her child, 
and her prayers are
all-powerful with You.
Amen.
