Prayer to St. Francis de Sales

O Blessed Francis de Sales, who in your mortal life did excel in all virtues, especially in love for God and the neighbor, I earnestly entreat you to take me under your immediate protection, and to obtain of God my perfect conversion, and that of all sinners, especially for . . .  Teach me, O my Father, to fix my eyes on heaven, that I may generously trample under foot every obstacle that presents itself in my way, and attain that degree of glory which God in His Infinite Mercy holds out to me. Amen.
