Please keep me in your prayers so God can heal my heart and deliver me from depression and lift the cloud of darkness and negativity from me. Your prayers are of a great help for me. God bless you.
 
Heavenly Father,
TrueFaithSeeker is close to despair.
It is tempting to give up,
to withdraw from life and religion and let the world simply carry them along.
Everything can seem so meaningless and nothing appeaks to better instincts.
Help them to remember that Jesus gave meaning to everything in the world.

Let them bank on that fact and get over this time of despair,
to really believe in the depths of their being that there is a reason for living.
Show them the reasons for their life and tell them what they must do.
Bring home to TrueFaithSeeker that they are never alone, but that you are with them even in the depths of despair.
Remind them that no matter what they may endure now an unending joy awaits them in the future if they but cling tightly to you and your Son Jesus in the unity of the Spirit.
Amen.
 
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, we fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother. To you do we come, before you we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word incarnate, despise not our petitions but, in your mercy, hear and answer us. Amen.
 
I am praying for you. May the Holy Spiritu fill you with peace and joy.

Alma

Lord, help us when we feel most hopeless. In our pain, please help us to remember that you are always beside us, holding and carrying us. Help us to truly believe that there is nothing that can happen that You and I can’t get through together.:signofcross:
 
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.
 
Praying to give you comfort and lift you out of depression …

Dear friend, I experienced the same pain as you, many, many times. I felt depressed and helpless. I would look at pornography and masturbate in order to ease my pain, but it just ended up making me feel even more guilty. I would eat large amounts of junk food in hopes that the ‘emptiness’ would go away, but it didn’t. I would lay around on my bed doing nothing hoping that it would all be over soon, but it did not…

What I advise you to do, my friend, is to go to your local parish and have a talk with a very special priest whom you know close. Confess your sins to him and tell him all about this problem. Then ask him to be your Spiritual Director. It is very useful because you can go to him at least every week and talk to him about your spiritual problems and your relationship with The Lord. You can confess to him routinely, and he will guide you to make the right choices. All with the help of your prayers and the Holy Spirit of course. I also recommend that you pray the Rosary everyday, as I found it very useful and comforting to have The Blessed Mother guide me to her Son. Best wishes 👍

*Dear Lord,
Our friend TrueFaithSeeker is in need of Your assistance. He is weary, sad and depressed. O Holy Spirit, descend unto our friend so that You may heal the wounds within our friend’s heart. Cleanse his soul, Dear Spirit, so that the destructive thorns of sin cannot harm him. Help TrueFaithSeekr find a good priest to become his Spiritual Director, o Spirit, so that he will be granted absolution for his sins by the authority of Your Church. Guide him always, o Spirit, so that he may make the right choices in life. Veni Spiritus!

In the name of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. Amen.*

"The future starts today, not tomorrow!" -[Soon to be] Blessed Pope John Paul II

Venerable John Paul II, pray for TrueFaithSeeker. Help him seek the true faith that lies within Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
