Father,You gave Saint Bernardine a special love
for the holy name of Jesus.
By the help of his prayers,
may we always be alive with the spirit of Your love.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son,
who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
St. Bernardine of Siena,
you were healed of respiratory illness
and preached the love and mercy of God everywhere you went.
I come to you now seeking your prayers for
[Name of the person]
and all who suffer respiratory illnesses.
Plead their cases in union with Mary, the Mother of God,
and seek healing for them if that is God's holy will.
Pray, dear saint, that they suffer with joy,
persevere with hope,
and that they join their afflictions with Jesus' for the salvation of souls.
I ask your intercession on their behalf in Jesus' holy Name.
Amen.
Jesus, Name full of glory, grace, love and strength!
You are the refuge of those who repent,
our banner of warfare in this life,
the medicine of souls,
the comfort of those who morn,
the delight of those who believe,
the light of those who preach the true faith,
the wages of those who toil,
the healing of the sick.
To You our devotion aspires;
by You our prayers are received;
we delight in contemplating You.
O Name of Jesus,
You are the glory of all the saints for eternity.
Amen.
Saint Bernardine of Siena, words were very important to you. You spent most of your life speaking the golden words of Jesus' mercy and his Holy Name. And you abhorred words that were shameful. Pray for us that we may always choose to speak Jesus' name with reverence and choose words of love over words of shame. Amen
