Adoring the Trinity in Your Soul

Lord, I adore You with the most profound adoration as You are present before me in the Most Holy Eucharist.  I love You and seek to know Your hidden beauty and splendor.  You are glorious, dear Lord.  As I behold Your glory, draw me ever deeper into Your perfect Heart of Mercy.  Jesus, I trust in You.

Most Holy Trinity, I love You and adore You as you live within my soul.  May I seek You more deeply and come to love You with all my heart.  Jesus, I trust in You.

O Eternal God! O Eternal Trinity! Through the union of Thy divine nature Thou hast made so precious the Blood of Thine only-begotten Son! O eternal Trinity, Thou art as deep a mystery as the sea, in whom the more I seek, the more I find; and the more I find, the more I seek. For even immersed in the depths of Thee, my soul is never satisfied, always famished and hungering for Thee, eternal Trinity, wishing and desiring to see Thee, the True Light.

O eternal Trinity, with the light of understanding I have tasted and seen the depths of Thy mystery and the beauty of Thy creation. In seeing myself in Thee, I have seen that I will become like Thee.
(Act of Thanksgiving to the Trinity, from St. Catherine’s Dialogue on Divine Providence).

Jesus, I trust in You.

Prudence in Action
This is great wisdom, not to be hasty in action, or stubborn in our own opinions.
A part of this wisdom also is not to believe every word we hear, nor to tell others all that we hear , even though we believe it.
Take counsel with a man who is wise and of a good conscience; and seek to be instructed by one better than thyself, rather than to follow thine own inventions.
A good life makes a man wise toward God,
and gives him experience in many things.
The more humble a man is in himself, and the more obedient towards God,
The wiser will he be in all things, and the more shall his soul be at peace. Amen

A PRAYER OF THE CHALDEAN TRADITION

A PRAYER OF SURRENDER TO THE DIVINE WILL Most holy Trinity, Godhead indivisible, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, our first beginning and our last end, you have made us in accord with your own image and likeness.

Grant that all the thoughts of our minds, all the words of our tongues, all the affections of our hearts, and all the actions of our being may always be conformed to your holy Will. So may we, having seen you veiled in appearance here below by means of faith, come at last to contemplate you face-to-face, in the perfect possession of you forever in heaven. Amen.

Before the tremendous throne of your majesty, at the exalted place of your divinity, the majestic seat of your glory and the sublime throne of your sovereignty where your servants the Cherubim continuously sing hymns and where your glorifiers the Seraphim sing unceasingly the “Sanctus,”

we bow down with fear adore with trembling, give thanks, and glorify you without ceasing, at all times, O Lord of the universe, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for all ages.

ANOTHER PRAYER OF THE CHALDEAN TRADITION

When the essence of the sweetness of your love, O Lord our God, will make itself felt in us, and when our souls will be enlightened by the knowledge of your truth, then will we be worthy to go forth to meet your beloved Son as he comes from heaven, and there render thanks and glorify you unceasingly in your victorious Church, full of help and happiness, because you are the Lord and Creator of everything, through all ages.

For all the help and the incomprehensible graces that you have granted we give you thanks and we glorify you unceasingly in your victorious Church, full of every help and happiness because you are Lord and Creator of everything, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, through all ages.

Hymn:

To you O Lord of the Universe, we proclaim our confession, and we glorify you, Jesus Christ, because you are the resurrection of our bodies and the savior of our souls. You indeed, Lord, are the resurrection of our bodies and the good savior of our souls and the everlasting keeper of our life, and we are bound to thank you, adore and glorify you at every moment, O Lord of the universe through all ages.

EUCHARISTIC THANKSGIVING TO THE HOLY TRINITY

Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, behold us prostrate in your divine presence. We humble ourselves profoundly and beg you to forgive our sins.

We adore you, Almighty Father, and with hearts overflowing we thank you that you have given us your divine Son Jesus to be our Redeemer, and that he bequeathed himself to us in the most holy Eucharist even to the end of the world, revealing to us the wondrous love of his heart in this mystery of faith and love.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

O Word of God, Jesus our Redeemer, we adore you and with hearts overflowing we thank you for having taken human flesh upon yourself and having become both Priest and Victim in the sacrifice of the Cross, for our redemption: a sacrifice which, through the overflowing love of your Sacred Heart, you renew upon our altars every moment.

O High Priest, divine Victim, give us the grace to honor your holy sacrifice in the most sacred Eucharist with the homage of Mary most holy and of all your holy Church, triumphant, suffering and militant.

We offer ourselves wholly to you; of your infinite goodness and mercy accept our offering, unite it to your own and grant us your blessings. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

O Divine Spirit the Paraclete, we adore you and with hearts overflowing we give you thanks that you have, with such great love for us, brought about the ineffable blessings of the Incarnation of the Word of God, a blessing which is being continually extended and enlarged in the most holy Sacrament of the Eucharist.

By this adorable mystery of love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, grant to us and all poor sinners your holy grace. Pour forth your holy gifts upon us and upon all redeemed souls, and in an especial manner upon the visible head of the Church, the Pope, upon all Cardinals, Bishops and Pastors of souls, upon priests, deacons and all other ministers of your sanctuary, upon those in the religious and consecrated life, and all your people. Amen.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

O ETERNAL TRINITY a prayer of St. Catherine of Sienna Eternal God, eternal Trinity, you have made the blood of Christ so precious through his sharing in your divine nature. You are a mystery as deep as the sea; the more I search, the more I find, and the more I find the more I search for you.

But I can never be satisfied; what I receive will ever leave me desiring more. When you fill my soul I have an even greater hunger, and I grow more famished for your light. I desire above all to see you, the true light, as you really are.

I have tasted and seen the depth of your mystery and the beauty of your creation with the light of my understanding.

I have clothed myself with your likeness and have seen what I shall be.

Eternal Father, you have given me a share in your power and the wisdom that Christ claims as his own, and your Holy Spirit has given me the desire to love you.

You are my Creator, eternal Trinity, and I am your creature. You have made of me a new creation in the blood of your Son, and I know that you are moved with love at the beauty of your creation, for you have enlightened me.

Eternal Trinity, Godhead, mystery deep as the sea, you could give me no greater gift than the gift of yourself. For you are a fire ever burning and never consumed, which itself consumes all the selfish love that fills my being.

Yes, you are a fire that takes away the coldness, illuminates the mind with its light and causes me to know your truth. By this light, reflected as it were in a mirror, I recognise that you are the highest good, one we can neither comprehend nor fathom.

And I know that you are beauty and wisdom itself. The food of angels, you gave yourself to man in the fire of your love. You are the garment which covers our nakedness, and in our hunger you are a satisfying food, for you are sweetness and in you there is no taste of bitterness, O triune God!
