  • Litany of Trust

    • What is the Litany of Trust?

      The Litany of Trust
      is a prayer
      composed by
      Sr. Faustina Maria Pia, SV
      of the Sisters of Life.

      In it,
      we ask Jesus to deliver us
      from the things
      that hold us bound,
      and we place our trust
      in His promises.


      "There is no misery
      that could be a match for my mercy."
      - Jesus to St. Faustina
       


      Jesus I Trust In You

    • Image of Divine Mercy
  • The Litany of Trust

    • From the belief that I have to earn Your love
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the fear that I am unlovable
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the false security that I have what it takes
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the fear that trusting You will leave me more destitute
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From all suspicion of Your words and promises
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the rebellion against childlike dependency on You
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From refusals and reluctances in accepting Your will
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From anxiety about the future
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From resentment or excessive preoccupation with the past
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From restless self-seeking in the present moment
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From disbelief in Your love and presence
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the fear of being asked to give more than I have
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the belief that my life has no meaning or worth
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From the fear of what love demands
      Deliver me, Jesus.
      From discouragement
      Deliver me, Jesus.

    • That You are continually holding me, sustaining me, loving me
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That Your love goes deeper than my sins and failings and transforms me
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That not knowing what tomorrow brings is an invitation to lean on You
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You are with me in my suffering
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That my suffering, united to Your own, will bear fruit in this life and the next
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You will not leave me orphan, that You are present in Your Church
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That Your plan is better than anything else
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You always hear me and in Your goodness always respond to me
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You give me the grace to accept forgiveness and to forgive others
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You give me all the strength I need for what is asked
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That my life is a gift
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You will teach me to trust You
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That You are my Lord and my God
      Jesus, I trust in You.
      That I am Your beloved one
      Jesus, I trust in You.
