EPIPHANY NOVENA
December 30
Day 3
Day 3
O holy Magi! who regarded neither the severity of the
season, nor the inconveniences of the journey that you might find the newborn
Messiah; obtain for us the grace not to allow ourselves to be discouraged by
any of the difficulties which may meet us on the way of salvation.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy
Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without
end.
PRAYER
I salute Thee, O divine Heart, with the three Magi who
offered their homage to Thee. Regard me, I beseech Thee, with the same love and
kindness with which Thou didst receive them, that I may offer with my heart,
gold, frankincense and myrrh; that is to say, my intellect, my memory and my
will, in complete subjection to Thee, in faith, hope, charity, in thought, word
and deed. Accept my offering, accept my heart, and grant that I may live and
die thanking Thee for the invaluable favor of being called to the true faith.
Hence, I beg of Thee, by the joy which filled Thy heart, when Thou didst see
the first of the Gentiles at Thy feet, to hear my prayer and grant the request
I make in this Novena. Amen.
