Prayer of the Divested Soul
If my suffering, Lord, however seemingly small,
serves as a relief from the suffering of my brothers and sisters,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
If my emptiness, dryness, agony and abandonment of You
serve as assistance, encouragement and joy for my brothers and sisters,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
If my tiredness, desert and aridity
serve to fill the emptiness, the aridity and the deserts of my brothers and sisters,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
If my nights of harassment, battle or solitude
serve to give strength, encouragement and faith to my brothers and sisters,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
If the lack that I sometimes feel of You, the absence of consolation
and the increase in work pleases Your wounded Heart,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
If my despair, my torments and my dark nights
help to save lost, abandoned and unloved souls,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
If I do not receive love and only contempt,
if I do not feel understood and only judged,
if at this moment I do not find the meaning of being by Your side,
beloved Christ, may Your Will be done, Lord.
Give me the inner strength to fear nothing.
Every day give me the bravery to learn
how to come out of myself, more each day.
Give me love to learn how to love and accept my fellow being,
because if up to now I do not feel anything,
if on this cold night or this cloudy day
I cannot manage to see the Sun of Your Heart,
and this serves so that my brothers and sisters of the world
may manage to see the Light, the Love and the Mercy of God,
may Your Will be done, Lord.
I only hope to please You in the small details.
I only want to be an instrument in Your Hands of pity, Lord,
so that anywhere on Earth
where You send me, You may be recognized,
so that they may feel love and hope,
so that, thus, the suffering, the pain and the abandonment
of desperate hearts may be relieved,
in honor of Your Celestial Victory.
Amen.
I thank you for keeping My Words in your hearts!
Who blesses you,
Your Master and Lord, Christ Jesus
