Distrusting our own powers we should always have perfect confidence in God’s grace which will be “sufficient” for us if we humbly ask for it. May then the seed of God’s Word, contained in the Scriptures, or sown by the teaching Church, find “a right and good heart” in us to receive it, that we may bear much fruit in patience.

Luke 8, 4-15. At that time, when when a very great crowd was gathering together and men from every town were resorting to Jesus, He said in a parable: “The sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some seed fell by the wayside and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air ate it up. And other seed fell upon the rock, and as soon as it had sprung up it withered away, because it had no moisture. And other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it. And other seed fell upon good ground, and sprang up and yielded fruit a hundredfold.” As He said these things He cried out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” But His disciples then began to ask Him what this parable meant. He said to them, “To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables, that ‘Seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’ Now the parable is this: the seed is the word of God. And those by the wayside are they who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved. Now those upon the rock are they who, when they have heard, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, but believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away. And that which fell among the thorns, these are they who have heard, and as they go their way are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not ripen. But that upon good ground, these are they who, with a right and good heart, having heard the word, hold it fast, and bear fruit in patience.” S. Praise be to Thee, O Christ.

O Bleeding Face, O Face Divine, be every adoration Thine. (Three times)
DAILY PREPARATORY PRAYER
O Most Holy and Blessed Trinity, through the intercession of Holy Mary, Whose soul was pierced through by a sword of sorrow at the sight of the Passion of Her Divine Son, we ask Thy help in making a perfect Novena of Reparation to Jesus, united with all His sorrows, love and total abandonment.
We now implore all the Angels and Saints to intercede for us as we pray this Holy Novena to the Most Holy Face of Jesus and for the glory of the Most Holy Trinity — Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.
THIRD DAY
BEGIN WITH DAILY PREPARATORY PRAYER.
. . . [T]hat Thou mayst be justified in Thy words, and mayst overcome when Thou art judged. For behold I was conceived in iniquities; and in sins did my mother conceive me. (Ps. 50:6-7)
PRAYER OF POPE PIUS IX
O Jesus! Cast upon us a look of mercy. Turn Thy Face towards each of us as Thou didst to Veronica; not that we may see It with our bodily eyes, for this we do not deserve. But turn It towards our hearts, so that remembering Thee, we may ever draw from this Fountain of Strength the vigor necessary to sustain the combats of life. Amen.
Mary, our Mother, and Saint Joseph, pray for us.
Through the merits of Thy Precious Blood and Thy Holy Face, O Jesus, grant us our petition. . . . My Jesus, pardon and mercy!
PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS
All Highest, Glorious God, cast Thy light into the darkness of our hearts. Give us true faith, firm hope, perfect charity and profound humility, so that with wisdom, courage and perception, O Lord, we may do what is truly Thy Holy Will. Amen.
TO THE ANGELS AND SAINTS
We salute thee, through the Holy Face and Sacred Heart of Jesus, O all ye Holy Angels and Saints of God. We rejoice in thy glory, and we give thanks to Our Lord for all the benefits which He has showered upon thee. We praise Him, and offer thee for an increase of thy joy and honor, the Most Holy Face and gentle Heart of Jesus. Pray that we may be formed according to the heart of God. Amen.
Pray one (1) Our Father, three (3) Hail Mary’s, one (1) Glory Be.
