To Saint Thérése of the Child Jesus

22. To Saint Thérése of the Child Jesus O Glorious Saint Thérése, whom Almighty God has raised up to aid and inspire the human family, I implore your miraculous intercession. You are so powerful in obtaining every need of body and spirit from the Heart of God that Holy Mother Church proclaims you a “Prodigy of miracles... the greatest saint of modern times’. I fervently beseech you to answer my petition (Here mention your need) and to carry out your promises of spending Heaven doing good upon Earth... of letting fall from Heaven a Shower of Roses! Henceforth, dear Little Flower, share with me your childlike faith, that I may see the face of God in the people I encounter and in the experiences I have in life, and to love God with full confidence. O Saint Thérése, my Carmelite sister in Jesus, I will fulfil your plea to have him “made known everywhere” even as I continue to strive to lead others to him through you! Amen.
