The Blessed Trinity O High Eternal, Godhead
|
|
|
|
The Blessed Trinity O high eternal Godhead,
|
incomprehensible, immeasurable love!
|
You say, eternal Father,
|
that those who look at themselves
|
find you within themselves.
|
For they are created in your image.
|
They have memory
|
to hold fast to you and your blessings,
|
and in this they share in your power.
|
They have understanding
|
to know you and your will,
|
thus sharing in the wisdom of your only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
|
And they have a will to love you,
|
so sharing in the Holy Spirit's mercy.
|
So not only did you create us
|
in your image and likeness,
|
but in a certain way you bear our likeness.
|
|
|
So you are in us and we in you.
|

Trinity Prayer to God
|
|
|
God the Father,
|
I thank Thee for creating me.
|
|
God the Son,
|
I thank Thee for redeeming me.
|
|
God the Holy Ghost,
|
I thank Thee for sanctifying me;
|
infuse into my thoughts,
|
words and actions Thy grace,
|
so that they may be supernaturally pleasing to Thee
|
and supernaturally rewarding to me, forever.
|
|
O Blessed Trinity,
|
abundantly assist me in becoming that
|
which Thou intended me to become when Thou
created me,
|
for in that perfection
|
I will give Thee the glory Thou desirest of me,
|
and in that perfection I will find my greatest joy in
heaven.
|
|
Amen.

FOLLOW ME PRAYER
|
|
Almighty and eternal God,
|
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
|
Perfect love.
|
|
Father, you have made known to us your will;
|
Jesus, your Son and our Savior, showed us the way
|
Through the gifts of the crucifixion and the Resurrection.
|
The Holy Spirit, infused into our souls in Baptism and
|
Confirmation, guides us in all that we do for you.
|
|
Since you created each of us as a unique person to know
|
You and to serve you, stay with us on our way into the new
Millennium, as we strive to meet life's challenges -- to protect
the unborn, the old, the afflicted, the weak, the strong, the rich,
and the poor.
|
|
Guide us in unity of family and church community so as to do the
work you have prescribed in the Gospels.
|
|
Teach us to spread the love that you have shown in our creation,
so our actions may inspire hope that will lead to peace.
|
|
Help us to hear and respond to your words, "Follow Me, as you
stay with us forever."
|
|
Amen.
