Mary, I believe that the Almighty God has sent You here so
that You may call me to peace. I believe that the visionaries saw You with ]esus
in Your arms and it is He who is the source of all peace. Today, I consecrate
myself to You and accept You as my mother, as Jesus, Your Son, accepted You. I
desire to belong completely to You and to always remain in Your motherly school
of peace and love. I renounce every sin and evil, all hatred and disorder,
every conflict and destruction of life: I renounce Satan and all his works.
With You, in the name of Your Son Jesus, I believe I will
overcome every evil and be freed from all my bad habits. With You, I decide for
peace and promise that I will always try to live in peace with God and my
neighbours. I promise to respect, defend, love and serve every life. I forgive
all those who have offended me and I now ask for forgiveness from those whom I have
offended. From now on, I belong completely to You: soul, mind and body. I
consecrate to You my family, all mankind and all those who have not consecrated
themselves to You. Like Your heart, through the power of the Holy Spirit, may
my heart become the throne of Your Son. Thank You for accepting me as Your
child, for protecting me and guiding me along the sure way to eternal peace.
Through the power of Your intercession and through the infinite merits of Your
Son, Jesus Christ, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, may the Father grant peace
to our generation and to the entire world. Amen.
Think your thoughts in my mind. Love, through my heart.
Give me your dispositions and feelings.
Teach, lead and guide me to Jesus.
Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior.
Possess my soul. Take over my entire personality and life.
Replace it with yourself.
Incline me to constant adoration and thanksgiving.
Pray in me and through me.
Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.
- Pope John Paul II
MARIAN CONSECRATION
I, (name), a faithless sinner, renew and ratify today in your hands, O Immaculate Mother, the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomps and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.
In the presence of all the heavenly court, I choose you this day for my Mother and Queen. I deliver and consecrate to you, as your slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present, and future; leaving to you the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to your good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and eternity. Amen. - St. Louis Marie de Montfort
