DAILY MESSAGE OF SAINT JOSEPH, TRANSMITTED IN THE MARIAN CENTER OF FIGUEIRA, MINAS GERAIS, BRAZIL, TO THE VISIONARY SISTER LUCÍA DE JESÚS

Prayer to Imitate Christ

Lord,
may my eyes contemplate the world with Your Eyes;
may my heart feel life as does Your Heart;
may my soul live upon Earth and beyond it, as does Your Soul;
may my days be an eternal reflection of Your Mercy
so that I may see my neighbor as You see me,
so that I understand my neighbor as You understand me, 
so that I may be patient with my neighbor as You are with me, 
so that I may speak to my neighbor as You speak to those who are Yours,   
so that I may act with my neighbor as You act with those who are Yours, 
and so that I may deliver to them all that You may wish to deliver.
 
Therefore, Lord,
may I love as You love,
serve as You serve
and live as You live,
eternally.
 
Amen.


Pray like the first companions of Christ, who, gathered around Him, - Jews, pagans, atheists, fishermen, prostitutes, scholars and soldiers, poor people and tax collectors, doctors and lepers - learned to love one another as He loved them.

Through His sacred Presence, their eyes became merciful and they could see beyond miseries and appearances.

This is how, children, you should look at one another today, with these very Eyes. This is how you should recognize one another, in the eternal Presence of Christ; loving, understanding, patient, merciful and compassionate, as His Heart is.

You have My blessing for this.

The Most Chaste Saint Joseph
