 TERNAL Father! I thank  Thee,  I  bless Thee, for  Thy  goodness  and  mercy. Thou hast  had  compassion  on  me,  although in my  folly  I  had  wandered  far  away  from Thee and  offended  Thee  most  grievously. With fatherly  love  Thou  hast  received  me anew  after  so  many  relapses  into  sin  and forgiven me  my  offenses  through  the  holy sacrament of  penance. Blessed forever,  O  my God,  be  Thy  loving  kindness. Thy infinite mercy! Never again  will  I  grieve  Thee  by ingratitude,  by  disobedience  to  Thy  holy  will; henceforth my  watchword  shall  be:  Omnia ad major  em  Dei  gloriam!"  "All  for  the greater glory  of  God! "

Sacred Heart  of  Jesus,  I  trust  in  Thee.

Indulgence of 300  days. — Pius  X,  June  27,  1906.

Jesus, my  God,  I  love  Thee  above  all  things.

Indulgence of 50  days,  each  time. — Pius  IX, May 7,  1854.

DIVINE Spirit! penetrate my  soul  with true horror  and  loathing  of  sin. Grant that I  may  be  more  exact  in  the  fulfilment  of all  my  duties,  and  strengthen  me  by  Thy  grace, that I  may  not  again  yield  to  temptation.
