PRAYER TO MARY, MOTHER OF MERCY FOR A MIRACLE

-
Mother Mary, I plead for Your tender gaze to fall upon me in my misery and to intercede for the prayer I humbly make. I know I am unworthy to be looked upon by eyes so holy, yet I thank God who has entrusted You with the office of advocate for the most abandoned sinners. I beg You to obtain for me pardon for my sins and a heart overflowing with love for Jesus.

My dearest Mother, I promise to come to You every day, at this hour and in this place, to implore Your intercession for a miracle in my life. I humbly bring before You this petition (mention your petition). O Mother of Mercy and Hope, help me in my time of need, for I have no one else to turn to but You, my heavenly Mother.

I do not come to test You, but I seek Your help with sincerity and humility, trusting in Your loving care. I know You will hear my prayer as I strive to do my part with faith and diligence.

O Mother of Mercy, pray for me. Amen.
