Abandon...

Act of Abandonment to the Will of God

O God, I have no knowledge of what 
is in store for me today.

I only know that nothing shall happen to me 
that has not been foreseen by You

and directed to my greater good, from all eternity.

This is enough for me.

I adore Your eternal and unfathomable designs.

I submit them with all my heart for love of You.

I offer them with my whole being

in union with the sacrifice of Jesus, 
my divine redeemer.

In His name and by His infinite merits, 
I ask You for the grace of patience

and loving acceptance of my sufferings.

I only wish to do Your holy will 
and use all my energies for Your glory. Amen. 

(Bl. James Alberione-Founder of the Pauline Family)
