Novena for Clarity – Day 9: Submission
Join in praying the Novena for Clarity to seek God's guidance and wisdom in decision-making.
Today's Focus: Submission
On this 9th day of the Novena for Clarity, we pray for submission in our journey of discernment. We ask God to help us grow in submission and to guide us in this aspect of seeking clarity for our decisions.
Prayer for Day 9
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Dear Lord, we thank You and praise You for the loving care You have shown us in our lives. We humbly ask You today for the grace of clarity for all who are seeking it.
Whenever we seek to understand God's will for our lives, it can be difficult to truly submit ourselves to His will. It is not always easy to abandon our own will to serve Him, but submission to His will is necessary for growth in holiness.
Please grant the grace of clarity for all who seek it, and we particularly ask today that You help all who seek clarity to grow in true submission to Your will!
Help us to grow to a more intimate relationship with You each day. Help us to rely on You more fully in every difficulty we face.
And I especially ask in this novena (mention your intentions here).
Lord, hear our prayers!
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Reflection for Today
Today we pray for submission in our journey of seeking clarity. Submission is an essential aspect of discernment that helps us understand God's will for our lives.
God is our loving Father, and He wants us to understand His plan for us. As our Father, He guides us in growing in submission and using this virtue to serve Him better.
The title "Clarity" reminds us that God wants us to understand His will and that we can grow in submission through our prayer and discernment. He is always available to us, always ready to provide wisdom, and always ready to help us make the right decisions.
As we continue this novena, let us ask God to increase our submission. Let us ask Him to help us practice this virtue in our discernment journey, knowing that He will always guide us and help us grow in holiness.
Remember that God's guidance is not limited by time or circumstance. He is perpetually ready to help us grow in virtue, and we can practice submission completely with His help.
