February 11 (motherly love)
Divine Jesus, you sent the Blessed Mother to Saint
Bernadette to show the world that God is real. Just like Mary asked to the
girl to dig for a spring of healing water to appear, show me how to be
cleansed of my sinful tendencies. Give to me our dear Mother when I need her
tender love and holy inspiration. As I go through difficulties, cover me with
her prayers. When I have important decisions to make, ask her to intercede for
me until I understand and follow the Holy Spirit's guidance. When it's time
for me to die, send her to carry me peacefully into the arms of our heavenly
Father. Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for me. Amen.
