God's Plan
Novena to Blessed Carlo Acutis Day 2
It’s impossible to know what God has planned for us. It wasn’t that long ago that Amelia was learning to write and do math.
We had no way of knowing what was coming soon. We also currently have no way of what’s happening soon. All we can do, all we can ever do, is trust God’s plan, and have faith enough to follow it.
Opening Prayer
Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, I think you for all the grace and favors with which you enriched the soul of the Blessed Carlo Acutis during his 15 years on this earth. Through the merits of this Angel of Youth, grant us the grace which we earnestly seek, that Amelia be cured of her metachromatic leukodystrophy.
Meditation
“Always to be united with Jesus, that is my life’s programme.”
Blessed Carlo Acutis, you who have lived in the heart of Jesus, give me the grace to apply Jesus’s plan of love to everything. Amen.
Pray five Our Fathers, five Hail Marys, and five Glory Bes to give thanks to God for the grace granted to Carlo in the 15 years of his earthly life.
Closing Prayer
Almighty God, Father of Mercy, raise your servant Blessed Carlo Acutis to the glory of the altars, so that through him you will be even more glorified. Give us the honor of counting him among the saints, for he lived in Your Will in all things. And through his merit, give us the grace that we so ardently desire.
Amen.
