Pope St. John Paul II Novena - Day 7

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. O Blessed Trinity, we thank you for having graced the Church with Saint John Paul II and for allowing the tenderness of your fatherly care, the glory of the Cross of Christ and the splendor of the Spirit of love to shine through him. Trusting fully in your infinite mercy and in the maternal intercession of Mary, he has given us a living image of Jesus the Good Shepherd. He has shown us that holiness is the necessary measure of ordinary Christian life and is the way of achieving eternal communion with you. Grant us, by his intercession, and according to your will, the graces we implore (mention request here…) through Christ our Lord. Amen. The goal and target of our life is He, the Christ who awaits us – each one singly and altogether – to lead us across the boundaries of time to the eternal embrace of the God who loves us. Help me, dear St. John Paul to remember that God is the end-all. In every moment of my life, I need to be focused on my life with Christ, so that when my earthly life ends, my eternal life can begin with Jesus. Our Father Hail Mary Glory Be (Optional) Divine Mercy Chaplet In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.Amen.
