Please pray for Matt. He is 21 or so and is a boy my son grew up with. He is using heroin and crack and is in jail tonight for possession of these drugs which includes a felony. While my son has had to cut ties with him for the most part, we still care about him and have high hopes that Matt will get help and have a better life.
Please pray that God’s will is done in this situation and that it is an opportunity for Matt to get the help he needs. Please pray also for his family, especially his parents and for his girlfriend. The drug abuse affects so many more people than just the user. Thanks so much for your prayers.

Amie, thank you for requesting prayer for Matt. You have a good heart.
Lord Jesus, help Matt during this hard time. He has been searching for something to make his life better and has been looking in the wrong places. I pray he will turn to you and find the happiness he has been looking for. I pray this in Jesus name. Amen
Lord, I pray for Matt’s protection and that he experiences healing. May he seek you, Lord, and find you, and have you deliver him from his addictions. Please help him experience love and goodness. He needs this in order to rehabilitate. Help his family and girlfriend cope with this situation properly. May they love Matt and help him become the person they all want him to be. Grant them comfort and strength to be good examples for Matt and to show him their love, kindness, and support while he is in prison. Bless Matt with the grace of conversion and help him to become whole again. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer. Amen.

Praying for St. Dymphna’s intercession to heal Matt’s addictions…
Lord Jesus Christ, You have willed that St. Dymphna should be invoked by thousands of clients as the patroness of nervous and mental disease and have brought it about that her interest in these patients should be an inspiration to and an ideal of charity throughout the world. Grant that, through the prayers of this youthful martyr of purity, those who suffer from nervous and mental illness everywhere on earth may be helped and consoled. .
Be pleased to hear the prayers of St. Dymphna and of Your Blessed Mother. Give those whom I recommend the patience to bear with their affliction and resignation to do Your divine will. Give them the consolation they need and especially the cure they so much desire, if it be Your will. Through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
