Our Lord directed St. Mechtilde to say the following
prayer whenever she went into choir, or said the divine
office or other prayer; assuring her that she might
securely rely on the mercy of God that no prayer thus
begun should fail of its effect.
O
MOST Holy Father, in union with the love of
thy well-beloved Son, I commend my spirit to
thee.
PRAYER BEFORE THE DIVINE
O OFFICE OR OTHER PRAYER
ALMIGHTY, everlasting God, I, thy most

unworthy creature, appear here before the
throne of thy grace, desiring to pour out my
heart before thee, and to worship thee, my God, as well
and as perfectly as I can. Wherefore I begin and will
faithfully continue this divine office [or, this prayer] in
union with the love wherewith thy Son worshipped thee,
and wrought all the whole work of our redemption;
beseeching thee that I may be enabled to pay thee a
tribute of honour and praise like that which the most
precious Humanity of Jesus and the most holy Virgin
Mary rendered thee unceasingly. And to this end I offer
these my prayers to thee, in the virtue and merit of the
Sacred Heart of Jesus, in his Name and in that of all thy
holy angels and saints, to thy eternal praise and glory. I
humbly implore thee to preserve me from all distraction
