Based on the words and guidelines of St. Francis de Sales
Dearest Jesus,
I thank you for
Having taken care of me today,
And now I will examine
How I have conducted myself
Throughout the course of this day…
For all the good I have done,
I sincerely and wholeheartedly
Thank you for it;
For anything I have done wrong
In thought, word, or deed,
I ask pardon of you,
The Divine Mercy,
And I resolve to confess it
At the first opportunity,
And to make careful
Amendment for it.
In your Divine Providence,
And through the intercession of
Our Lady, my Guardian Angel,
And all the saints in Heaven,
Please take care of my body and my soul,
Please take care of my relatives and my friends,
Please take care of the Holy Catholic Church,
And please take care of everyone else in the world,
That the windows of our souls
Will be closed against the shadows of hell.
Thus, with your blessing, dear God,
I go to take the rest
That you have decreed
As necessary for me.
Amen.
