A CONFESSION

I am so disheartened with myself, for I see my faults are many, and I fall so many times into sin.

I long to love You and adore You, and I am so weak in my ways.

So easily I fall into little traps set by Satan, so easily I fall. So easily I wander and I long and thirst to be ever closer!

I see Your greatness. I love You more and more. I am in awe of Your presence. The more I know and love You, the more I am sorry for my wrong doings, my little offenses against You, my Beloved.

So unworthy I am of Your love and goodness.

This is a letter from me to You, my sweet Jesus, my Beloved, my precious One.

I had the greatest gift, the Holy Eucharist, and I took it for granted. I did not thank You enough. I did not adore You enough. I did not worship You enough.

I love You with the deepest love, my God, my All.

You are here now before me, exposed, and my heart is filled with awe and reverence, for You are truly God, and I am Your servant, Your beloved servant.

I love You. I love You. I love You.

Mary, my Mother, lead me into greater intimacy with my beloved Jesus. I ask your intercession for this, my fervent prayer. My plea is, oh beloved Jesus, to give to me whatever I need to be closer to Thee.
