I Love You, O My God

I love You, O my God, and my only desire is to love You until the last breath of my life.

I love You, O infinitely lovable God, and I would rather die loving You than live one moment without loving You.

I love You, Lord, and the only grace I ask is to love You eternally.

My God, if my tongue cannot say in every moment that I love You, I want my heart to repeat it to You as often as I draw breath.

Give me the grace to suffer while loving You, and to love You while suffering.

And when I come to die, may I not only love You but also feel that I love You.

Amen.

Prayer for Priests (Inspired by Saint John Mary Vianney)

Heavenly Father,

You chose Saint John Mary Vianney to shepherd Your people with humility, holiness, and unwavering love. Through his tireless ministry in the confessional and at the altar, he revealed the compassionate Heart of Your Son, Jesus Christ.

We ask You today to bless all priests. Fill them with the zeal of the Gospel, the wisdom to guide Your people, the courage to preach the truth, and the compassion to welcome every sinner seeking Your mercy.

Strengthen them in times of weariness, comfort them in moments of loneliness, and renew in them the joy of their sacred vocation. May they be faithful servants of the Eucharist, devoted ministers of Reconciliation, and shining examples of holiness.

Through the intercession of Saint John Mary Vianney, inspire many young men to answer Your call to the priesthood and grant that Your Church may always have shepherds after the Heart of Christ.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
