Intercessions Lord, we ask you today, through the intercession of Saint Thérèse, for the grace to discover the love of your fatherly heart: Father, I surrender myself to you. Even before I was formed in my mother’s womb, you knewme, you called me by my name: Grant me to discover that you love me, even in my sin, weakness, sickness. Whether I am asleep or awake, whether I get up or sit down, whether I climb the mountains or descend into the darkness, you are there: Sure of your infinite love for me, I entrust you with the particular request of my heart for this novena, and for the Church and the whole world, especially those who are unaware of your immense love: Personal Intentions N Prayer to Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (page 58) With SaintThérèse, we pray: Hail Mary… Our Father… Lord God, who showed Saint Thérèse your immense love for her and for all your children, grant us the grace to perceive your infinite and tireless love, from the very dawn of our existence until today. Through the prayers of Saint Thérèse, may the light of your love pierce our darkness, to soothe and heal our souls. 8
