February

Guest
Hi,

Please pray for me. I am having a very difficult weekend. I miss my mom terribly; it is the second Mother’s Day since she died. My friends have been busy with “life”, and haven’t been getting back to me lately. I am desperately longing for a relationship, fiance, spouse; the person I cared about is now with somebody else.

I know it is God’s will, but I just don’t get it sometimes. I’m not perfect by any means, but I try so hard to be good, moral, go to Mass and follow all the church’s teachings. People I know who are living together, having sex, using contraception, and behaving immorally all have relationships/spouses. A husband and children are the two things I want most in life, and people who have them seem to take them for granted. They complain about their parents and mothers. It’s just not fair. I’d give anything to have those things.

Please pray.

Father,
Be with your Child, February, and comfort her. Show her that , though her earthly mother has departed, her heavenly Mother is ever there and holding her; Rocking her in Her Loving Arms.
Help her to understand Your divine Plan for her.

amen
 
I’m sorry you’re having a rough time.Things will get better.Praying for you.
 
I will keep you in my prayers too, I’m so sorry you are so sad.
Perhaps if you get more involved in your Church you will meet some women like your Mother who will take you under their wing.
Let your friends know how you are feeling, perhaps they don’t know.
 
From today’s Liturgy of the Hours:

Prayers and Intercessions

We sing the praises of the Lord. When the Fifty Days were completed he filled the Apostles with the Holy Spirit from heaven. And so with joy and devotion let us pray:
  • Send forth your Spirit and renew the world.
In the beginning you created heaven and earth, and in the fulness of time you restored all things in Christ:
through your Holy Spirit, forever renew the face of the earth and lead it to salvation.
You breathed the breath of life into Adam:
send your Spirit into the Church and make her alive, young, and ready to give life to the world.
Enlighten all men with the light of your Spirit and dispel the murk of the present time:
turn hatred into love, grief into rejoicing, war into longed-for peace.
Refresh the human race with the water of your Spirit, which flows from Christ’s side:
may it free our earth from the cruel thorns of evil.
Through the Holy Spirit you bring men to life and glory:
through the same Spirit, may the dead enter their home in heaven and rejoice in your love forever.

Our Father, who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those that trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
 
You poor darling!
Yes, I’ll be praying for you.
And may God fill you with thankfulness for the gift of life and the happy memories, for good things that you do have, and for something good I hope you do for yourself soon. May God encourage you to some healthy, even adventurous! self-nurture. “Love others as you love yourself” (as you love yourself!) Of course you also miss your Mum. A hug.
May God grant you healing of all these hurts, and help you find someone you can happily share your life with
Love and peace, Trishie
 
Praying here that you would feel as special as God sees you and as we see you. Remember God has a plan for your life.
Praying also that you feel comforted by the Holy Spirit as you remember your dear mother this weekend.

I am praying for you! I pray that your pain of missing your mother eases and that you meet that special person and have many many children. God bless you!

February,
God is trying to teach you to be patient, and more importantly to be faithful. I have walked in similar shoes, and those are the two biggest lessons I took away. Things don’t happen or come to you overnight.
Continue to pray, continue to give of yourself, everything else will follow into place. Trust in God.
I will keep you in my prayers.
Take care and God bless you,
Tony
 
Saint Rita pray for her…

“Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ to heal those of our souls.”
“My Jesus, pardon and mercy by the merits of Thy Holy Wounds.”

We have to prepare for the gifts that God will give us! Marriage and children are a huge responsability, I’ve been married 13 years this summer and it brings its’ shares of hardship and sorrows. Do not despair or waste time being depressed, you should invest this alone time in preparation for marriage and motherhood. Sooo many of my friends and family members have divorced in the last few years, I cannot even count anymore. Halve of them were never prepared for the responsabilities, in the first place.
People have to do 4 years of college, at least to hold a career job, others even more. But not enough people take the time to prepare for marriage or parenthood 🤷 , and then it all becomes too difficult to manage. Sooo go get some books, mags, speak to the members of your church that work in the marriage support retreats etc. This is actually a valuable time for you to prepare, so whenthe Lord sends prince charming 😉 and later the bundles of joy…you will know exactly how to manage it all, under the Lords’ Loving Gaze. Find out who you really are. What kind of a life you whish to live. What good qualities you want your spouse to have. Because if not, you could end up choosing wrong :eek: and end up in a messy situation. It is difficult to change an adult with bad habbits, so be a wise girl and invest this God-given time to prepare yourself, for what treasures the Lord will send your way. Sadly Mom is not here, to talk to you about a lot of things,but I’m sure she does not want you unhappy, so read those preagnancy and parenting magazines, so you learn about what to expect etc. Stay doing the right thing, I guarantee you, that those couples that live together now and look sooo happy, will eventually experience the heavy crosses of life and will suffer much, for not living under the grace of God.

I am praying for you…

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
 
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

May our Blessed Mother console you with extra graces on this sad Mother’s Day.
 
February,
God has a plan for you and your life.
Hold true to your faith!
I’m praying for you now.
 
Oh, February! Many of us have gone through what you are going through. Unfortunately, it is one of those things that “happen” to us in life. You WILL get through it. I will be praying, daily, that Our Lord will strengthen you, give you comfort and peace, and lead you to the right person for marriage! I also ask Our Blessed Mother to comfort you during these difficult times. God bless you and hang in there!😉
 
February:

I’m sorry to hear that you are going through a tough time.

I’m praying for you.

Prayerfully,

Renato
