Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus,
you who chose the little way of love and trust,
teach us to love God simply,
in the little things of every day.
Help us to remain confident when the going gets tough,
to find peace in times of trial
and never to lose hope.
You who promised to send
a shower of roses upon the earth,
pour out upon our families and those we love
the graces they need.
Present to the Lord the intentions we hold in our hearts
and accompany us on the path of faith.
Saint Thérèse, little flower of Jesus,
pray for us and lead us ever closer to Him.
Amen. ?
