Petition to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

My Jesus, Lord of my soul, You promised that Your Divine Heart
would be the ocean of mercy for the needy who trust in You. I firmly believe
that You can grant to me what I am asking even if it would require a miracle
to do it. Where should I go knocking but at the door of your Heart? “Blessed
are they who hope in You.”
O Jesus, I confide to Your Heart the following intention… (silently
mention your petition/intention here) Look at it and do what Your Heart
dictates. Let Your Heart act accordingly.
O Jesus, I count on You. I confide in You. I surrender and consecrate
myself to You. I feel secure in You. “Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in You.”
