DIVINE WILL PRAYER TO COMBAT COVID-19
O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother and Queen of the Divine Will, I entreat you, by the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and by the graces God has granted to you since your Immaculate Conception, the grace of never going astray.
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I am a poor and unworthy sinner, and I beg of you the grace to allow our Mother and Luisa to form in me the divine acts you purchased for me and for everyone. These acts are the most precious of all, for they carry the Eternal Power of your Fiat and they await my “Yes, your Will be done” (Fiat Voluntas Tua).
So, I implore you, Jesus, Mary and Luisa to accompany me as I now pray:
I am nothing and God is all, come Divine Will. Come heavenly Father to beat in my heart and move in my Will; come beloved Son to flow in my blood and think in my intellect; come Holy Spirit to recall in my memory and breathe in my lungs.
I fuse myself in your Divine breath O Holy Spirit, giver of life; may your breath extend its healing balm to those afflicted by the corona virus; may your divine breathe enter them now and heal them; may they grow in the love and knowledge of your Divine Will. I now offer You, on their behalf, the joys and the sorrows they experience – may none of their sufferings be lost, but welcomed by You as a fragrant offering for the healing and salvation of souls. Teach every afflicted soul to offer their sufferings to You.
Grant them and those who assist them, the Spirit of piety, so that their spirit may augment in virtue. May their thoughts become Your Thoughts, may their words become Your words, may their acts become Your Acts which are all pure and divine.
Holy Spirit, Sanctifier of life, teach me to reach perfection. Root out from my heart all vice; utterly subdue my evil passions and all my unruly desires. Perfect in me in charity and patience, humility and obedience, and in all other virtues. Be my sure defense against the snares laid for me by my enemies, both visible and invisible. Restrain and quiet all my evil impulses, and make me ever cleave to Thee the one true God.
Holy Spirit, Starlight of my soul, infuse in me the piety of your saints and the divine virtues of your angels, so that I may devoutly keep Your Laws. Graciously show Yourself to my lowly soul, draw me near Your Triune Presence Most Powerful and tender God.
Amen.
Reverend Father Joseph Leo Iannuzzi
