  2. 02

    Opening

    O Divine Infant Jesus, I come to you as a little child, with all my needs and all my trust. You who made yourself small for love of us, look kindly on me in my smallness. Fill me with confidence in your power and tenderness in your care. I believe that you can help me, and I believe that you will. Divine Infant Jesus, I place all my hope in you. Amen.

  3. 03

    Your Intention

    Let us pause in silence, and bring to mind the intention you are praying for.

    In the app, your own saved intention rests here during the silence. The narration stays the same for everyone.

    Scripture

    James 1:17

    Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation nor turning shadow.

  5. 05

    Reflection

    Every good thing in your life, named and unnamed, has come down from the Father of lights. He does not change with the seasons or shift like a shadow; his goodness is constant. To trust him for what you need now is reasonable, because he has been the unseen source of every good gift you have ever received.

  6. 06

    Prayer

    Father of lights, every good gift in my life has come from you, though I have often forgotten to thank you for it. You do not change; your goodness has no shadow of turning. As I bring you my present need, I remember all you have already given, and I trust the unchanging hand that gave it. Amen.

  7. 07

    Our Father

    Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

  8. 08

    Hail Mary

    Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

  9. 09

    Glory Be

    Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

  10. 10

    Closing

    O Jesus, who said, Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you, I knock, I seek, and I ask that my prayer be granted. O Jesus, who said, Whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you, I humbly lay my need before your Father in your holy name. O Jesus, who said, Heaven and earth shall pass away but my word shall not pass away, I trust that my prayer is heard. Divine Infant Jesus, I place all my hope in you. Amen.

  11. 11

    Sign of the Cross

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
