December 30, 2025: Third of 13-week devotion: Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua on his Sermon topic of ‘Repentance, Conversion, and Renewal of Heart’
O holy St. Anthony of Padua, zealous preacher of the Gospel and gentle guide of repentant hearts, I come before you seeking the grace of true conversion.
Teach me to turn away from sin and to return wholeheartedly to God. Soften my heart when it grows hardened, awaken my conscience when it becomes dull, and lead me back to the mercy of Christ. Help me to recognize my faults with humility, to repent with sincerity, and to trust in God’s endless compassion. Draw me away from all that separates me from God and guide me toward the healing mercy of Christ.
Renew my heart, O Lord, so that it may beat again with love for what is good, true, and holy. Let my life be changed from within, my desires purified, and my spirit made attentive to God’s voice. May my life be transformed by love, and my spirit strengthened to walk in holiness
St. Anthony, intercede for me, that through repentance and conversion I may grow closer to God each day, living with a renewed heart that seeks His will and glorifies His name. Amen.
