Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary

Holy Virgin Mary, Mother worthy of filial love, give me a heart like yours, strong in its decisions and unshakable loyalty.

A heart full of love that radiated good will and is not hardened.

A pure heart that lives in the flesh without living for the flesh.

A noble heart that quickly forgets its wounds and is ever ready to pardon.

A sensitive heart that shares in the joys and sorrows of others.

A heart gentle and kind, that judges no one and never ceases to have confidence in others.

A recollected heart, closed to the enticements of the Evil One, open always to the Word of God in all the events of life.

An unwavering heart, clear in its thinking and strong in its action.

A heart that is completely absorbed in the interests of Christ and unshakably loyal to Him.

Amen.
