Oh Holy Spirit, God of Love, thank you for filling my heart with love, that I may offer it to You.

Help me feel perfect love for my neighbour, especially for my close ones.

Make me a faithful believer, a generous, modest, sweet, humble, and trusting person, able to govern my own emotions, to conciliate and adapt to the unknown.

Do not let me think of myself first, or do things for my own interest.

Open my heart wide to the world; let me find pleasure in doing good. Remove the stains of jealousy, pride, vanity and narcissism.

Soothe my anger: may I control my irritability and susceptibility.

Heal me from impatience: may I close my mouth to constant criticism or complaining when I am disappointed in others, when they reject me, judge me, or forget about me.

Most Holy Spirit, let me endure it all, let me feel pain to understand and learn to go through it.

Teach me to be righteous, to look out for my neighbour: do not let me hurt them, or judge them, but let me forgive them, even when they do me wrong.

I do not want to hold on to grudges when I am offended, I want to feel happy for those who succeed better than me, and rejoice when truth prevails.

Holy Spirit, teach me to believe in the goodness of others, to hope and trust in it, to not give in to despair, to love Christ, who helps me welcome others with kindness and compassion.

Oh Mother Mary, Queen of Peace, make me an instrument of reconciliation;

Glory be to God the Father, who gives me the Spirit of Life,

Glory be to Jesus Christ, who fills me with the Spirit of Love,

Glory be to the Holy Spirit, who works through me to bring my faith in the Almighty to fruition;

Amen, Hallelujah!”
