Dearest Father--my Creator and my God,
You promised that in every place where we honor Your Name, you would come to us and bless us. O Father, arise and come to rest in us, Your children. Clothe us in Your Salvation and let us rejoice in Your goodness. Please do not turn away our faces from Your loving Presence. If we have found favor in Your sight, show us Your face, so that we may know You and find grace before Your eyes. Please speak to us now as You spoke to Moses--as a man speaks to his friend. Let it be known this day that You are the "Father of All Mankind," Who can turn all hearts back to Yourself, and that we are Your children who desire only to do Your Will in all things. Answer us, Lord, answer us--so that Your children may know that You are mankind's one True God and Father. As Your prodigal children, we want only to return home to You. As we approach You, Father, please run to meet us. And, in Your unconditional love and compassion, embrace and kiss us. Like Mary, Your handmaid, and Jesus, Your Son, we love You, Father, and we give ourselves to You. Following those You sent to bring us back home, we now freely consecrate ourselves to You saying:
" With Mary, our Mother, Be it done to me according to Your Will. Through Jesus, Our God and Savior Not as I will but as You will. In the Holy Spirit, Our God and Sanctifier Abba, Father!"
Jesus promised, when two or three are gathered together in His Name, He is in the midst of us. So as Jesus is in You, and You in Jesus--and Jesus is the Vine and we are the branches--be with us now; and through Your Holy Spirit, dwell in us always as Your living temples. Bless us Father, and walk among us, Your children. And, may Your Glory descend upon us, as the Transforming Fire of Your tender Love and Mercy---now and forever. Amen.
