Dear Lord Jesus,
You who miraculously healed so many, look lovingly upon all the sick in the world.

Let us present them to You just as the needy did when they asked for Your help while You lived on the earth.

We bring before You those who for a long time have been tested by sickness and who have lost hope to be healed.

We bring before You those who suddenly became paralyzed by infirmity and had to stop all activity and work.

We bring before You those who have family responsibilities but cannot correspond to them because of their fallen health.

We bring before You those who suffer some illness in body and soul that leaves them utterly disconsolate.

We bring before You those who are profoundly discouraged by their ravaged health and who do not have the spirit needed to get back on their feet.

We bring before You those without hope of a cure and who feel the lack of Your strength.

We bring before You the sick that You love, all those who need Your help to get better.

We bring before You those whose debilitated bodies resemble Your Body immolated on the Cross.

Lord Jesus,
comfort with Your grace all the sick. Do not deny them Your visit, help and word of comfort.

Lord Jesus,
when we are tested by sickness, may we know how to unite our pains to Your cross.

Lord Jesus,
make us fight for the end of the suffering caused by injustice and the malice of men.

Amen.
