Dear
Jesus, through Mary,
help me spread Your fragrance
everywhere I go.
Flood my soul with Your
Spirit and Life.
Penetrate and possess my whole being so
utterly, that all my life may be
a radiance of Thine.
Shine through me and be in me
that every soul I come in contact with
may feel Your presence in my soul.
Let them look up and see
no longer me but only Jesus.
Stay with me and then I shall begin
to shine as Thou shinest,
so to shine as to be a light to others.
The light O, Jesus, will come from You,
none of it will be mine.
The light will be You shining on others
through me.
Let me thus praise in the way
Thou love best, by shining
on others around me.
Let me preach You, without preaching,
not by words but by example.
The catching force, the sympathetic
influence of what I do, the evident
fullness of the love my heart
bears to you. Amen
