Dear St. Therese ,

I come before you with a humble and sincere heart, asking for your loving intercession. Please hear this personal petition that I place gently in your care.

I pray for the grace to receive the life I hope for, if it be according to God’s holy will. I desire a peaceful home in a warm place, a simple and cozy space filled with love. I ask for a faithful partner who loves you deeply, so that together we may grow in love, commitment, and devotion to God. Bless us with joy in the little things, even in caring for a small companion who brings warmth to our home.

Guide me in my work, that I may build something meaningful, serve others well, and find both purpose and stability. Grant me financial peace and independence, and a heart that remains grateful in all circumstances.

Above all, I surrender these desires to God’s will, trusting that His plan is greater than my own. May my life be redeemed and shaped according to His purpose. I also pray that my parents in heaven may look upon me with joy.

Thank you, for your love and intercession.

Amen.

Please know, I use the same prayer request because I help many animals and people in addition to my own needs. This is quicker and more efficient.
