Acts of Faith, Hope and Love

Acts of Faith, Hope and Love

The Acts of Faith, Hope and Love prayer is based on the three theological virtues taught by St. Paul in the Gospel (1 Corinthians 13:1-13). These graces are gifts from God given to us freely; and we are free, but not required, to accept and use them.

Act of Faith
O my God, I firmly believe that You are one God in three Divine Persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I believe that Your Divine Son became man, died for our sins, and that He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe these and all the truths which the holy Catholic Church teaches, because You have revealed them, Who can neither deceive nor be deceived. In this faith I intend to live and die. Amen.

Act of Hope
O my God, relying on Your almighty power, infinite mercy and promises, I hope to obtain pardon for my sins, the help of Your grace, and life everlasting, through the merits of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Redeemer. Amen.

Act of Love
O my God, I love You above all things, with my whole heart and soul, because You are all-good and worthy of all love. I love my neighbor as myself for the love of You. I forgive all who have injured me and ask pardon of all whom I have injured. Amen.
