'Prayer for Faith, Hope, and Charity'

Lord Jesus, give me deeper faith, that faith which will enlighten my intellect, so that I can see You more clearly, until I see You face to face. Lord, may my intellect have Your thoughts.

Lord, give me a deeper hope, that hope which will totally heal my memory, leaving me with only purified and holy memories. Give me real joyful hope that the best is yet to come. Lord, share with me Your memories, Your hope.

Lord, give me deeper charity, that charity which enflames Your heart, to do the Father's will through the Holy Spirit,Until my will is perfectly united to Your will. Lord, place Your unconditional love and holy desires in my heart.

Amen. Amen. Amen.
