Discover the Treasure of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus!

Act of Consecration to the Sacred   Heart of Jesus  (of St. Claude de la Colombière)  My adorable Redeemer, I give and consecrate  myself totally to Thy Sacred Heart in the fullest and  most complete way of which I am capable. Nail me to Thy Cross by my Baptismal  Promises, by the duties of my state of life and by  my resolution to serve Thee always. I renew all these  before heaven and earth in Thy Sacred Heart.  Thy holy service is for me an easy yoke and its  bonds do not burden me. Moreover, I would desire  to fasten even more closely its tight knots. Therefore, I embrace the beloved cross of  my vocation even unto death. It shall be all my  delight, my pleasure, my glory. God forbid that I  should glory, save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus  Christ, through which the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.  Thy poverty shall be my  treasure; Thy sufferings my delight; Thy Person, my  only love. I will never abandon Thee, my Savior; I will  unite myself intimately with Thee. I do not fear the  narrow path of holiness, because Thou art my light  and my strength. I hope, therefore, O my Lord, that Thou will  make me firm to resist all temptations and that  Thou will make me victorious over all the enemies  of my soul. Continue to stretch out Thy hand over  me, and to bestow Thy favors upon me. By Thy Blood, by Thy Wounds and by Thy  Sacred Heart, I implore Thee, O adorable Jesus, by  this act of consecration grant that I may become a  new creation of Thy love. Amen.
