Resolution - In all trials and tribulations I will seek consolation in God alone.
Spiritual Bouquet -Give me but Thy grace, and it sufficeth me.
Affections - For the love of poor sinners, O Divine Child, Thou didst will to suffer persecution and exile. Thou wouldst show us that no one can be perfectly happy on earth, because we are all but pilgrims and strangers. But despite the manifold hardships of the present life, it is by Thy grace very meritorious, and has been made bearable for us poor mortals by Thy example and that of the saints. For our encouragement Thou dost show us the glorious fruits of the patient bearing of trials. Let me not seek consolation in the things of this world, and thus be detained from following Thee. O Mary and Joseph, lead us through the imitation of your virtues to Jesus.
