Dear Anonymoose

My heart goes out to you. When I read what you are going through, my trials and tribulations seem so inconsequential. I will keep you, your daughter and mother in my prayers. I would like to share with you this Prayer written by Sr. Judith Kubish, CSJ which I found very helpful. Hope it helps you too:

Prayer for Healing
God, I put my trust in you.
You made me, you know me.
You promise you are near.
I put my trust in you.
You provide whatever we need.
You are the source of healing.
Hear my prayer for people who are suffering.

God, be with them in their pain, anxiety or fear.
Accept their tears. Comfort their hearts.
Remind them that you never stop loving them.
Let them feel your presence and know they are precious in your sight.

You are with us all our lives.
You give us reason to hope.
You help us to change when it is necessary
and to accomplish everything we do.
Show your daughters and sons your plans for them now,
plans for peace, wholeness and joy.
Hide them in the shelter of your presence
and let them rest in your arms.

I believe you are with us
through all that happens to us.
I believe that you lead us to good and that
you want fullness of life for us.
Lead us now God, we will let you.

I offer up this prayer for you, your daughter and mother.

God bless.

Dear A
Thank you for caring enough to post a thoughtful suggestion. I get very discouraged from time to time when I experience hurtful behaviour and then I see the worst of humanity on the television news and social media. However, I do follow the daily and Sunday Mass on tv from time to time. I also try to read religious/inspirational books, or watch same type of tv shows. They give me some comfort. I will check out the stations of the cross link you attached. Thanks for thinking of me. Keep me in your prayers, as I will you. God bless.

Anonymous praying that you feel the love sent to you, your daughter and mother through all our prayers. In today’s Gospel it seemed like the Lord had Ezekiel wade out into the water so deep that he just had to “let go and let God” take control. You are in “deep waters” but God and our prayers are with you and God can make them life giving waters somehow. Hold on.

Anonymous, I was in a similar situation when away and a pipe burst on the 2nd floor of my house. The water ran for many days and my house was destroyed. We had to rebuild floors, walls, everything. I hope you had insurance, mostly all costs should be covered, including motel and travel costs. Dont despair. I know this is a very heavy load to bear, and it will take some time to recover, but God will provide the help and strength you need. You are in my prayers.

Anonymoose, you and your family are in my prayers. I will say a rosary for you today.
Bob, wonderful reflection. Our priest started a mass that is run by our youth group. They are the ushers, lecture, chooses songs, etc. in the hopes of getting them more involved.

Anonymous, My adoration time today will include you and your family.
Bob great reflection, as an usher I like standing in front of the church and welcome people in, specially young people. I often think, why are they not ushers and greeters? When we become young adults or even teenagers, that connection with the church is lost.
Thanks Bob, you gave me a lot to work on today.

Anonymous, I am praying for you and your family. Tell God what you are feeling. Tell Him what you need. He’s listening. You are not alone. He has not abandoned you. I will keep you in my constant prayers today. God be with you.
