Litany to the Love of God

Posted in Catholic, spirituality


God whispered:images (18)images (18)
You think that you are building my church with all your business
 but you are hindering my work on earth,
not helping me.
All I want,
all I need is for you to stand before the cross
and allow the love of my Son to transform you
into His Presence on earth.

Lord have mercy on us.

Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, hear us.
God the Father in heaven,
Have mercy on us.
God the Son, Redeemer of the world,
Have mercy on us.
God, the Holy Spirit
Have mercy on us.
Holy Trinity, one God,
Have mercy on us.You Who art Infinite Love,

 


You Who first loved me,

I let Your love flow back to You. I love You *

You Who fill me with Your love ,
With all my heart,
With all my soul,
With all my mind
With all my strength,
I let Your love flow back to You. I love You *
Above all possessions and honors, 
Above all pleasures and enjoyments,
More than myself and all that belongs to me,
More than all my relatives and friends,
More than all men and angels,
Above all created things in heaven or on earth,
Only for Yourself,
I let Your love flow back to You. I love You. *

In wealth and in poverty,
In prosperity and in adversity,
In health and in sickness, 
In life and in death,
In time and in eternity,
In union with that love wherewith all the Saints and all the Angels who love You in heaven,
In union with that love that the Blessed Virgin Mary loves You,
In union with that infinite love. *

Let us pray:

My God, You are all that is perfect and worthy of love; kindle in my heart the pure flame of Your love, so that I may love as  You consume me with Your love.   Amen.
Love-of-God
