A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.


Luke 1:46-55

The Magnificat

And Mary said:

My soul proclaims
    the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
    in God my Saviour;

because he has looked upon
    the humiliation of his servant.

Yes, from now onwards
    all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
    has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
    to those who fear him.

He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
   from their thrones
        and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,

   sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
    of Israel his servant,
        mindful of his faithful love

--according to the promise
    he made to our ancestors--
of his mercy to Abraham
    and to his descendants for ever.


Messenger: Mary said: I am the handmaid of the Lord.

And so our whole life becomes that of coming in His name, of being the "handmaid of the Lord".

We are truly living as His servants.
