Dear Jesus and Mary:
We, your children,
Enshrine you in our
hearts
For a heart that has become a shrine
To
Jesus and Mary,
Cannot be filled with evil.
Though we may fall short
Of walking in your ways
We ask you to help us do what we can
And forgive us when we fall short
Amen
I prayed your comforting prayer with Ruth Ann Miller. It is wonderful to know that God always forgives us no matter how many times we fall short of our best. Thank you for the reminder. I had to look up "novena." I was surprised to read that the nine days are representative of the time between the ascension and pentecost.
