Suscipe--a prayer attributed to St. Ignatius Loyola
Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess, Thou hast given me: I surrender it all to Thee to be disposed of according to Thy will. Give me only Thy love and Thy grace; with these I will be rich enough and will desire nothing more. Amen
Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty,
my memory, my understanding,
and my entire will,
All I have and call my own.
Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty,
my memory, my understanding,
and my entire will,
All I have and call my own.
You have given all to me.
To you, Lord, I return it.
To you, Lord, I return it.
Everything is yours; do with it what you will.
Give me only your love and your grace,
that is enough for me.
Give me only your love and your grace,
that is enough for me.

Look at the crucifix
f you would like to know God … Look at the crucifix.
If you would like to love God … Look at the crucifix.
If you want to serve God … Look at the crucifix.
If you wonder what you are worth … Look at the crucifix.
If you wonder how much God loves you … Look at the crucifix.
If you want to know the need for self-denial and sacrifice … Look at the crucifix.
If you wonder how much you should forgive others … Look at the crucifix.
If you wonder how much you should do for others … Look at the crucifix.
If you wonder how much your faith demands … of you in humility, poverty, charity in every virtue … Look at the crucifix.
If you want to know what unselfishness and generosity are … Look at the crucifix.
If you wonder how far your own unselfishness should go to bring others to Christ … Look at the crucifix.
If you wish to live well … Look at the crucifix.
If you wish to die well … Look at the crucifix.

Prayer of Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity
"O my God, Trinity whom I adore, help me forget myself entirely so to establish myself in you, unmovable and peaceful as if my soul were already in eternity. May nothing be able to trouble my peace or make me leave you, O my unchanging God, but may each minute bring me more deeply into your mystery! Grant my soul peace. Make it your heaven, your beloved dwelling and the place of your rest. May I never abandon you there, but may I be there, whole and entire, completely vigilant in my faith, entirely adoring, and wholly given over to your creative action."— Prayer of Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity as found in 260 of the CCC
