Prayer of St. Joan of Arc

Courage. A vocation that looks insane to the people who love you.

I place trust in God, my Creator, in all things; I love Him with all my heart. I am a good Christian, well baptized. I should be sad if my voices were not from God. I have done nothing except by the command of God. Even if I had a hundred fathers and a hundred mothers, even if I had been a king’s daughter, I would have gone nevertheless.

Most sweet Jesus, transfigure me into the living image of You, that I may love as You love and fight as You fought: without hatred, without turning back.

Where it comes from

From her trial and her piety. She was nineteen.
