“Holy Terezinha do Menino Jesus, who in your short existence, you were a mirror of angelic purity, of strong love, and of such a generous surrender into the hands of God. Now that you are enjoying the prize of your virtues, I have turned a look of compassion on me, which I fully trust in you. Make my intentions your own, say a word for me to that Immaculate Virgin of whom you were the privileged little flower, to the Queen of Heaven who smiled at you in the morning of life. Pray to her, who is so powerful over the Heart of Jesus, that she obtains the grace for which I am so anxious at this time, (Ask for the desired grace). And may it accompany you with a blessing that will strengthen me during my life, defend me at the time of death and lead me to happy eternity. Amen."
