For increased hope in the Lord

[crenfro]

Hello.

Getting pretty dejected reading about all the happenings in the news and elsewhere…thought I’d pray for more hope and trust in the Lord. More prayers certainly welcome.

St. Pio Prayer of Trust & Confidence
O Lord, we ask for a boundless confidence and trust in Your divine mercy, and the courage to accept the crosses and sufferings which bring immense goodness to our souls and that of Your Church.

Help us to love You with a pure and contrite heart, and to humble ourselves beneath Your cross, as we climb the mountain of holiness, carrying our cross that leads to heavenly glory.

May we receive You with great faith and love in Holy Communion, and allow You to act in us, as You desire, for Your greater glory.

O Jesus, most adorable heart and eternal fountain of Divine Love, may our prayer find favor before the Divine Majesty of Your Heavenly Father. Amen.

Ave Maria
Gratia Plena
Dominus tecum
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Et benedictus fructus ventris tui Jesu

Sancta Maria
Mater Dei
Ora pro nobis pecatoribus nunc
En in hora mortis nostrae

Amen

Jesus, Mary and Joseph…pray for us

Saint Jude pray for us

I am feeling the same way lately too. I am saying prayers with you.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy 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

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 do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God, thrust into hell satan, and
all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

I just said a prayer for your intention. God bless you.

Father God please increase our hope and trust in you.

You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelope the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.

Praying hard. I can relate, I don’t know what’s happening to our country anymore.

A Prayer for Hope

Heavenly Father, we are Your humble servants.
We come before You today in need of hope.
There are times when we feel helpless.
There are times when we feel weak.
We pray for hope. We need hope for a better future.
We need hope for better lives.
We need hope for love and kindness.

Some say that the sky is at it’s darkest
just before the light. We pray that this is true,
for all seems dark. We need Your light, Lord, in every way.

We pray to be filled with Your light from head to toe.
To bask in Your glory. To know that all is right in the world,
as You have planned, and as You want it to be.

Help us to walk in Your light, and live our lives in faith and glory.

In Your name, we pray, 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.
