Mother, whom I have come to know as confidant and friend, pray with me. Be with me now as I offer my sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to God. Be with me as I lift up my heart to Him—to you—my mother in faith, in peace, in love.
Dear Mother, I come to you as friend, as daughter. I come to you in love. I come to ask the favors, the needs, the desires right now, of my heart. I give you the pressing needs that afflict me, afflict my loved ones. I give to you now, my heart.
Let my God know how deeply I yearn for Him, need and desire Him, love Him. Let Him know that I come before Him humbly, in sacrifice to Him, as an oblation—that it may be a sweet offering to His Heart. May it be a pleasing offering to Him through your hands, O Mother
I love you and I need you always to walk with me, be with me. Be with me now, Mother—and always. I love you. Yes! [Make requests]
Dear Mother, my friend, I love you. Be with me now as I pray. Help me to offer my prayers to the Godhead, the Divine Blessed Trinity—Father, Son, and Spirit—in love. Help me always to show my love and gratitude to God. Help me always to pray as I ought. Teach me as your little child to honor, love, and obey God in a manner most pleasing to His Heart.
I love you, Mother. Draw me ever closer as your child. Draw me ever closer as a child of the Light. Inflame in me the ardor of love and sacrifice I need to draw ever closer to His Heart.

I love you so, Mother. I wish to always do what is most pleasing to you, for I know that what you desire for my heart is a reflection of the Divine Heart's desire and most pleasing in His sight.
Do not leave me Mother, but rather take my hand and walk with me this path of mystery and love. Walk with me and cradle me in your heart, in your embrace. I love you. Take my hand always. Comfort me in distress. Teach me the divine light of Truth. Be with me always in love and peace.
Pure love is yours. Teach me, that pure love may be mine that I might love from my heart always as He loves—as you love—in peace. I love you, Mother. Yes.
Dear Mother in heaven, I love you. I am here to honor you as my Mother and friend. Be for me now a Mother as you were to Jesus—loving and nurturing, teaching and guiding, training in the ways of the Lord—and being for us a model of purity and love, show us the way to His Heart, His love, in peace.
Always show us the way to your Son. Always lead and guide us over right paths, to His Heart. I love you, Mother. I desire to know the Heart of Your Son as you do. Show us the way. Show all your children the way to His Heart.

Help me find the way to mine—to the heart He gave me to love Him—and you. Show me what I need to know in myself. Help purify my heart in yours. In His we reside. In yours I am covered in motherly love and tenderness. Take me to His Heart—gently.
Your gentleness and love is so special to me. It is a source of great joy in my heart. To know you is to know the Son you bore and gave to the world in peace.

Teach me to walk with Him as you do. Teach me to know myself, that I may walk more purely; pure in spirit, pure in love, pure in obedience—pure in love.
Know this, Mother. I pledge to you this day, my heart—to give to Him, the Divine Heart, in love.
I love you, Mother. Be there for me always—to call on, to be with, to love—to love as you love—to love as He loves. I love you always, now and forever. Amen. Yes.
Dear Mother, my friend, my confidant, I am here—to honor you, to give you my love, to invite you into my heart. Each and every day, come into my heart. Be with me. Walk with me. I love you.
Know as I am with you, Mother, I place you in my heart. Help me to always walk with you to the Divine Heart. You lead and guide me always. Help me to follow you—follow your way to the Father, to the Son, to the Spirit, in love—in love, Mother. Teach me the love you have for all. Show me how to give love as you do—as He does. Teach me to be one with you as I walk this path of love to Him—the Divine Heart—to the Divine Spouse—in peace. Teach me to love as you love, for you love as He loves—for you are the love He gives, you are the peace He gives and metes out. You are love, for you are a reflection of the Divine Heart. Help me to be this reflection of the Divine Heart also. Help me to know as you know, love as you love, give as you give—back to Him in love.
Teach me what it is to be a child of God, part of the Divine Heart—His—in peace. Teach me to love all in your heart. Teach me to bring my needs and the needs of those around me to you. Teach me to place all before you—knowing that you will present it to God for me—lovingly, gently placing my heart in yours and giving to Him this gift in love.
I love you, Mother. Be with me always. Walk with me. Teach me. Console me when needed. Cover me in your love and protection. I love you. Yes!
Dear Mother, I love you. Come to me now. Be with me as I pray. I love you. With all my heart I love you. I know you are here for me—increase my faith. I know you love me—increase my hope. I know you stand by me—lead me now in charity, that my acts of love and faith are given to all—all in His love—all in mine.
I know that you are the source of graces that leads me to the Divine. That you would think of me, touch me, reach out to me in love, touches my heart in a special way—and I am yours—yours to take to Him, the Divine Heart, in faith.
Do not now, Mother, leave my side. Walk with me, be with me, pray with me—that all I do may be pleasing to God—that all I say may glorify Him and His name—that all I am may reflect His Image and likeness as yours does—perfectly.
As the originator of all graces and source of all life, my God brings me to Himself through you. My beloved Mother, I am so grateful that you call me your own. Bring to me this day the blessings and grace I need to become more like you in virtue and love—more like you in His Heart. Teach me His Heart, His love, His peace. Teach me yours, as you are a reflection of His. Teach me that I may be yours through Him and we may be one in Him—and as His may we walk with all in love. May we live with all in peace. May we be one in Him forever and eternally sing out His praises in love.
I love you, Mother. Be part of me as we are part of Him. Amen.
Come to me Mother. Be with me now as I pray. Love me as the Divine Heart loves and place me in His wounds of love. Be with me now that I may see the sacrifices He made for me, that I may embrace the Cross as He did. Walk with me through this mystery of love. The Cross is my redemption, my salvation. Show me the Cross through your eyes. Show me this sacrifice of love as you lived it. Show me this sacrifice of love is mine also—for all time—for my eternity depends of this sacrifice of love.
My love deepens each time I reflect on the sacred mysteries of our faith. My love deepens as I see Him on the Cross. But I wish now, Mother, to grow deeper in the knowledge of the Sacrifice of Calvary. Teach me to know His love from the Cross. Teach me to know His anguish for lost souls. Teach me to know His Heart—for His Heart was perfected in the Father's love that day on Calvary.
Teach me Mother. Let me know the truths of our faith deeper and deeper each day. Let me live each day knowing the wounded Heart of our Lord—Christ Crucified. Let me know your Son as you do. Teach me to sacrifice now as He did—as you did. Teach me to offer my sufferings and love to Him, united with your Heart always.
I love you, Mother. Know now my wish and desire is to follow in your footsteps—to follow in His. Help me Mother. Show me the way—to His Heart—to His love—to His sacrifice—to Calvary.
I love you. Be with me now and always. Amen.
Dear Mother, my friend, my confidant, I am here—to love and abide in you, as we are in Him. Mother please always be with me as I pray, as I walk to Him in peace, as I offer praise and thanksgiving to God. Dear Mother, dear, dear Mother—always walk with me, be with me, pray with me. I love you. I wish to draw ever nearer your heart, and His.
Through this novena, I offer many petitions to God through your hands. I offer my love, I offer my peace, I offer my joy back to Him in peace. I offer my trials, my disappointments, my daily duties, the mundane, my daily walk in this world. I offer all back to Him—the gifts of joy, the gifts of peace, the little things He gives to me, the great and glorious treasures He gives to me. All I give back in love.
Help me, Mother, through your hands to present these gifts and petitions to Him, for through you, Mother, I know they will be purified and made holy, acceptable, and pleasing to Him.
Thank you, dear Mother, for always helping and guiding me, nurturing me and teaching me in the ways of the Lord. Always be with me. I love you. Amen.
Dear Mother, loving Mother, I am here—to be with you, pray with you, love you. Be with me as I pray.
I love you so very much and wish to come closer to your heart each day—closer to your heart—closer to His heart—in faith. He is the Way, the Truth, and Life. Teach me to follow His way—walk in His steps—carry His Cross—with mine. Teach me to know Him on a more intimate level that our hearts may be made one in peace—one in His Heart—one in mine.
That I may be a reflection of His Heart, His love, is my greatest desire. To reach for His hand and yours—my goal. That I may reach His Heart, and be but an extension of His love to all, is my calling.
I love you so, Mother. Take me to your Son—the Holy One, the Divine. Teach me to walk with Him, with you. Love me Mother, that I may show forth your love to the world and reflect your heart also—your virtues, your love. Your love is so great. Let me imitate your heart. Let me imitate your love. Show me the way. Guide my steps. Hold my hand. Walk with me. Let me never be parted from you. Let me never leave the side of your Son. Teach me in peace to be peace. Teach me in faith to know His glory. Teach me in love to be love to all.
To give all for him, I shall live. To teach all in faith, I shall try. To be an example of your virtue and His, I shall meditate on the Scriptures and practice the calling thereof.
I love you, Mother. Rest in me—in my heart. Let me be an abode of love for you—and mercy and love for all. May I always say “yes” to His call and His love. May I always say “yes” to your heart, too. Know my heart this day is yours, is His. Know I shall try each day and renew my efforts in His Name. I love you. Yes.
