Mother Veronica was one of the foundresses of the Cleveland monastery.  Her biography states that she had a great preference for the use of aspirations  and she knew how to adapt them to her needs. Regarding  the prayer  ‘My Jesus, mercy,’  she told a sister that  she made use of it in the following manner:
 First, My  Jesus, mercy! He is all mine and I am all His.
 Second,  My Jesus, mercy! He is my Jesus, my God, my All.
 Third,   First, My  Jesus, mercy! I, poor miserable sinner, need but one  thing—mercy. 
“The more we emphasis these words,” she  said, “the more fervent will be our prayer."
