Prayer to the
Sacred Heart of Baby Jesus

by the Felices los Niños Foundation

Little Heart of Baby Jesus:

Today we gather before You with immense hope, asking you to kindly respond to us in our afflictions!

You who had the privilege of beating at a time with the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your Mother, in her blessed womb: give us a bit of this tenderness and protection You received from her as she, immersed in lack of understanding, went on caring for You!

Little Heart of Jesus: When You were born the poor came to You with offerings and You gave them Your love and most of all the HOPE which irradiated from Your Crib:

Give us this CONFIDENT WAITING in Victory of Good over Evil, because sometimes time and wear make us mistrust and sadden us!

Oh tender and innocent Heart of Baby Jesus: You were pursued by the power of King Herod and suffered exile as You were scarcely born: Give us patience in pursue and entrust us to St. Joseph, your adoptive father, so he may provide us the security and the support Your Holy Family had while You lived through this terrible injustice!

Little Holy and Good Heart, Open to all of us who belong to the Son of God Among our scarcities let us not fail to see, as You always did, the needs of the poor and afflicted, those who suffer loneliness and abandonment, those who for many years did neither get a caress nor were told "I love you".

Come Baby Jesus of our Felices los Niños Foundation and establish here Your Kingdom of Justice so that Herod cannot go on chasing innocent people;

so in exile we may see the tender look of Mary and St. Joseph may be the Providing Fahter of the Children;

so we may not lose the joy of living and the children may grow in wisdom and grace before God and men, as you did in Nazareth;

so that lost children may be found by Joseph and Mary as they found You some day;

so we may know how to offer ourselves as You were offered in the Temple and so Mary doesn't leave us although a sword of pain crosses her heart!

Come Little Holy Heart of Baby Jesus and fill us with Your love so we may learn to respect us each other and love us more, so Your Kingdom will always be more present in this world:

for Your Glory, and not for ours!

Holy Little Heart of Baby Jesus: We ALL count on You!

Amen
