For Finals

[redbetta]

Dear friends, I have my chemistry and math finals this Monday. These are crucial for me. I did not do so well on my chemistry second midterm because something would not work on my calculator even though I knew exactly how to solve a problem. Math, you never know as I do not know what the curve will be. I got my Spanish oral Friday morning. I am just so tired after just having finished midterms and the weather is great now and it is difficult to work when my mind longs for my family and home. I pray for God to help me every night and I doubt whether he is willing sometimes. So pray for my grades that I do well just like last quarter.

Praying for your intentions.

… I pray for God to help me every night and I doubt whether he is willing sometimes…

Give thanks and praise to God. You have so much to be thankful for.

I am praying for your academic success, and that peace be with you.

Prayer for Test-Takers

Almighty God and Father,
please help us in our examinations.
Help us to face them with courage,
steady in nerves and keen in mind.
Help us to understand the questions that are asked,
to remember all that we have studied,
and to express our answers accurately.
Lord, grant us success, if success is good for us,
For you know what is best for each one of us.
With loving trust therefore we say,
“Whatever the results, blessed be your holy will.”
We make this prayer in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Saint 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 do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

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.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Almost there…

Praying to St. Joseph for you.

Saint Joseph, you are the faithful protector and intercessor of all who love and venerate you. You know that I have confidence in you and that, after Jesus and Mary, I come to you as an example for holiness, for you are especially close with God. Therefore, I humbly commend myself, with all who are dear to me and all that belong to me, to your intercession. I beg of you, by your love for Jesus and Mary, not to abandon me during life and to assist me at the hour of my death.

Glorious Saint Joseph, spouse of the Immaculate Virgin, pray for me to have a pure, humble, charitable mind, and perfect resignation to the divine Will. Be my guide, my father, and my model through life that I may die as you did in the arms of Jesus and Mary.

Loving Saint Joseph, faithful follower of Jesus Christ, I raise my heart to you to implore your powerful intercession in obtaining from the Divine Heart of Jesus all the graces necessary for my spiritual and temporal welfare, particularly the grace of a happy death, and the special grace I now implore: for redbetta’s academic success and for her homesickness…

Guardian of the Word Incarnate, I feel confident that your prayers on my behalf will be graciously heard before the throne of God.

St. Joseph Most Just, Pray for us!
Amen.

St. Joseph of Cupertino, St. John Bosco, St. Dominic Savio, Our Lady of Studies, pray for us. Holy Head of Jesus, Seat of Wisdom, keep us close to You. Amen. Holy Spirit, giver of wisdom, help us!

Keep it up guys. I am studying so much and not learning anything. I am dying. I fear all of my work this quarter will go down the tubes.

 

[redbetta]

The dreaded day is tomorrow. I’ve studied and still feel like I know nothing. Please pray.
