SLOTH vs DILIGENCE - Day 7

Prayer against sloth:

O Lord Jesus Christ, eternal Love, who in the garden didst pray so long so fervently that Thy Sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground: put away from us, we beseech Thee, all sloth and inactivity both of body and mind; kindle within us the fire of Thy love; strengthen our weakness, that whatsoever our hand is able to do we may do it earnestly, and that, striving heartily to please Thee in this life, we may have Thee hereafter as our rewarding exceeding great. Amen.
