Please pray for me as I am very confused.

Satan is using my tobacco addiction to torment me. Post-divorce, I can no longer afford to smoke 3 packs a day. Good thing!

Tobacco in moderation is approved in the Catholic Catechism. However, if you already have Satan in you He will use it against you. I did, and he is. Satan gets into you through exposure and did, when I ran away from home at 16. Bad things followed, and I proceeded along the 35-year tumultuous course which brings me here to ask for prayer. I am seeing a nun for the abortions, unless she is too scared of me, I have only seen her once so far.

For a long time I listened to Catholic radio station (here none is available) and the songs play through my mind. Today I have been listening to the one, “How to Save a Life” by the Fray, and realized it is my life that needs to be saved. I thought I had to save my son’s.

I am living in a dangerous neighborhood on a city street and there is both heavy car and foot traffic by my living room windows and much of it is frightening. Day and night. I have nightmares. I have been sleeping during the day and up at night, which is even worse.

I do not have enough money to live as I have been accustomed.

The song says “Break with the ones you follow,” and obviously that would be the Satanist at the state hospital 25 years ago, but there the trail gets lost, because everybody in my family life got affected. I am here to be near my son but also because my father begged and insisted. They do not understand.

My sister, with whom I have animosity, will be here from the mid-West with her husband for Christmas. I am planning to spend it alone. Don’t know what else to do.

Please pray for me, especially about the smoking as I am in torment.
 
I smoke too 🙂

Overall, I would advise you to try to cut back, but, whether you succeed or not, don’t kick yourself about it.

Praying for you, lynnehelen.

Thankyou for returning here with your concerns and needs for prayer.
 
May the Lord Jesus Christ be with you and comfort you always…

Peace!!!
 
St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle
be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray
and you O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God
Thrust into hell Satan and the other evil spirits
who prowl the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
 
I switched to e-cigs last January (V2Cigs).

Very easy transition, as the e-cigs tasted very good to me (coffee, coca cola, and vanilla)

At some point in June (or May?), it occurred to me that I hadn’t touched the e-cig for about 3 weeks, so that was the end of smoking for me!
 
Pray Jesus, he cans set you free from this addiction.

Dear God, please send Archangel Michael to destroy any evils that is the cause and root of this addiction, in Jesus Name. Amen

Oceans of love!
 
I pray that you will be delivered from your addiction to cigarettes by a strong devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and to the holy rosary. May you trust in Our Lady’s powerful intercession and turn to her in your need. May she guide you and protect you under her mantle of love and purity. May you know how much she and her Son love you and desire you to be well and at peace. Amen.
 
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you we cry, the children of Eve;
to you we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this land of exile.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us;
lead us home at last
and show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus:
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.
