Behold, O kind and most sweet Jesus, I cast myself on my knees in Thy sight,
and with the most fervent desire of my soul,
I pray and beg Thee to impress upon my heart lively sentiments of
faith, hope, and charity,
with true repentance for my sins,
and a firm desire of amendment, while with deep affection and grief of soul
I contemplate Thy five most precious Wounds,
having before my eyes that which David spoke in prophecy:
"They pierced My hands and My feet;
they have numbered all My bones."
God has loved us from all eternity.
So He says: "Remember I first loved you.
You had not come to be, nor did the world yet exist,
but I loved you already.
From all eternity I have loved you."
