Thanksgiving for the love of God and prayer for the increase of love for God

Merciful, merciful, philanthropic and good God! I thank You, Lover of mankind, from the depths of my heart for Your great, inexpressible, fatherly love, with which You, loving God and Father, have always loved me. You care for me, you hear my prayer, you count my tears, you see my sighs, you know all my sorrow. You gave me Your beloved Son through His incarnation, through the holy Gospel You taught and comforted me, through His example showed me the way and the rule of a holy life, through His suffering and death You redeemed me from eternal death, through His ascension to heaven opened paradise to me and prepared a place in heaven. You enlightened me with Your Holy Spirit, sanctified, comforted, strengthened, taught me and gave me joy, and through Him assured me of the children of God and eternal inheritance. You not only showed me great blessings, but also gave me Yourself with Your beloved Son and the Holy Spirit. How can I thank You enough for this great love? Grant me such a heart that I will never forget your love. Don’t let her ever fade away in my heart. Ignite my heart, enlighten my mind, sanctify my will, rejoice my memory and unite me with You forever!
