Candle Offering

Lord Jesus, I offer you this candle as a prayer:
May my little light shine out like this little candle with your light.
May I radiate like the warmth of this little candle with your love.
May I be directed upwards like this little candle to heavenly things.
May I be an offering like this little candle in devotion to God, to the Church, and for the needs of my neighbours suffering in this world and in the next.
May my heart burn like this little candle with the fire of divine love.
May my life be consumed and sacrificed for the light like this little candle in service of divine love.
May I stand like this little candle shining in the heavenly liturgy with all the saints.
Amen.
