JESUS HAVE PITY ON ME

PRAYER BEFORE HOLY MASS  Act of Love before Mass 
SUNDAY 30TH WEEK  IN ORD. TIME
O my God, I love Thee with all my heart, with all my soul, with all my strength and with no other desire than to be inseparably united to Thee. It is through Thy Divine Son that this union is about to be realized within me. In Holy Communion I long to identify myself with Him, that it will no longer be myself, but Him, who lives in me; and when I have received Jesus within myself, then I shall love and be loved by Thee in that same measure, in which I am united to Him. Hasten then, to give me Thy Divine Son, at the hands of Thy priest, that through Jesus, I may unite myself forever to Thee, O God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Mass Readings Lectures de la Messe  Reflection
First Reading Jeremiah 31:7-9
I will guide them by a smooth path where they will not stumble

The Lord says this: Shout with joy for Jacob! Hail the chief of nations! Proclaim! Praise! Shout: ‘The Lord has saved his people, the remnant of Israel!’ See, I will bring them back from the land of the North and gather them from the far ends of earth; all of them: the blind and the lame, women with child, women in labour: a great company returning here. They had left in tears, I will comfort them as I lead them back; I will guide them to streams of water, by a smooth path where they will not stumble. For I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my first-born son.

Responsorial Psalm


Second reading  Hebrews 5:1-6
You are a Priest forever in the order of Melchizedek

Every high priest has been taken out of mankind and is appointed to act for men in their relations with God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins; and so he can sympathise with those who are ignorant or uncertain because he too lives in the limitations of weakness. That is why he has to make sin offerings for himself as well as for the people. No one takes this honour on himself, but each one is called by God, as Aaron was. Nor did Christ give himself the glory of becoming high priest, but he had it from the one who said to him: You are my son, today I have become your father, and in another text: You are a priest of the order of Melchizedek, and for ever.

Gospel Mark 19:46-52
Go, your faith have saved you
As Jesus left Jericho with his disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus (that is, the son of Timaeus), a blind beggar, was sitting at the side of the road. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout and to say, ‘Son of David, Jesus, have pity on me.’ And many of them scolded him and told him to keep quiet, but he only shouted all the louder, ‘Son of David, have pity on me.’ Jesus stopped and said, ‘Call him here.’ So they called the blind man. ‘Courage,’ they said ‘get up; he is calling you.’ So throwing off his cloak, he jumped up and went to Jesus. Then Jesus spoke, ‘What do you want me to do for you?’ ‘Rabbuni,’ the blind man said to him ‘Master, let me see again.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Go; your faith has saved you.’ And immediately his sight returned and he followed him along the road.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God have pity on me. Lord that I may see the beauty of your love.  Lord that I may see the beauty in your creation. Lord that I may see the beauty in all your creatures. Lord that my spiritual blindness will dispel, that I may regain my spiritual sight.

Thank you God my Father for your assurance of comfort for I have been blind. Father you will  lead me. You will direct my steps back to you. Father you will guide me to streams of water by a smooth path where I  will not stumble. Lead me to your Son Jesus Christ, for he assured me that the water he will give, is a spring of living water for eternal life.  You are my Father, for I am your child.


Lord Jesus Christ I trust in you. Virgin Mary pray for me. Saint Joseph pray for me. God's guardian angels pray for me, guide me. My guardian angel pray for me. Protect me, guide and guard me.

You are my son, today I have become your father, and in another text: You are a priest of the order of Melchizedek, and for ever. 

Jesus have pity on me.
