A Prayer To Grow In Love

My sweet Jesus,

If I could wipe every tear from Your eye and collect the jewels of Precious Blood from Your crucified Body, I would. I desire to love You with even the smallest percentage of Your unending, perfect love for me. My heart yearns for more of You. I ask You to impress Your love upon my heart till the end of my days. If it be Your will, grant me peace, joy, and consolation, even in my most desolate moments. Thank You for the gift of Your life for mine; a priceless sacrifice and the most tender gift my soul will receive. Keep my soul caged within Your heavenly confines of love so that I may savor every drop of You in this life and infinitely more in the one to come. Amen.
