Novena to Our Lady of Guadalupe - Day 4 - Prudence
Blessed Mother of our Savior, Queen of Heaven who appeared to Juan Diego and brought about the conversion of a nation,
I make this novena to you, asking for your intercession to Our Lord that the virtues you lived in your life might be lived in mine.
Mother most wise, this world can be so confusing. I am beset on every side with voices calling me to choose this or that, to align myself with this idea or that idea, to value this life over that life....
Pray for me, Mother of God, that the voice I listen to is the voice of God. Intercede for me that in every circumstance I make the right choice - the choice that leads me closer to your son.
I ask for your intercession through His name.
Most Holy Virgin Mary, Help of Christians,
how sweet it is to come to your feet
imploring your perpetual help.
If earthly mothers cease not to remember their children,
how can you, the most loving of all mothers forget me?
Grant then to me, I implore you,
your perpetual help in all my necessities,
in every sorrow, and especially in all my temptations.
I ask for your unceasing help for all who are now suffering.
Help the weak, cure the sick, convert sinners.
Grant through your intercessions many vocations to the religious life.
Obtain for us, O Mary, Help of Christians,
that having invoked you on earth we may love and eternally thank you in heaven.
Amen
