Day 6 - Saint Rita, Exemplary as a Widow
Audio Version
In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Isaiah 30:18
But Yahweh is waiting to be gracious to you, the Exalted One, to take pity on you, for Yahweh is a God of fair judgement; blessed are all who hope in him!
Prayer of this day
Blessed and holy Rita, you have known the pain of losing your husband and you have preferred death for your two sons rather than seeing them live in a spirit of revenge to restore their father's memory, You have sacrificed your own happiness, your own desires to fulfill to the letter the Word of God which calls for mercy, charity and forgiveness towards our offenders and detractors.
May you, by your invigorating example, allow me in turn to know how to place my personal interests after the divine will, how to disappear in favour of the spirit of mercy that our most Holy Lord has placed in the heart of each of his creatures.
O beloved wife of Christ, it is on your intercession that I have based my trust, crown my hopes, hear my prayer. Help me to make the spirit of forgiveness and penance that leads to the freedom that the Most High has in store for us, bear fruit in me.
Sainte Rita, exemplary as a widow, pray for us.
Recite 3 'Our Father', 'Hail Mary' and 'Glory to the Father'
