Prayer of the Day Saint John Ogilvie Prayer

Dear St John Ogilvie

By your devotion to Christ You held fast to faith,

even unto martyrdom.

With the Grace of God, May I have a loving heart.

In the midst of trials, may I, like you, ‘Be of good cheer’.

And trust in the love of God.

Please hear my prayer …

Amen.

I have tried to pray this prayer daily since I first encountered it back in 2019, at the time I read several volumes about the Saints of the Isles, and the Martyrs of England and Wales. I have had this as my third last prayer of the day since then and if I add prayers towards the end of the day move this one back and insert the other.
