Praying in thanksgiving for all the graces granted……
:signofcross:
Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel
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 host,
…by the power of God,
…thrust into Hell Satan
…and all the other evil spirits
…who prowl about the world
… seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.

The Memorare
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 I come, before thee I stand,
sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petition,
but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

**Prayer Against Depression
**………….By St Ignatius of Loyola
O Christ Jesus
When all is darkness
And we feel our weakness and helplessness,
Give us the sense of Your Presence,
Your Love and Your Strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
In Your protecting love
And strengthening power,
So that nothing may frighten or worry us,
For, living close to You,
We shall see Your Hand,
Your Purpose, Your Will through all things.
:signofcross:

Let Nothing Disturb You
Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.

Patience,
Obtains all things,
Whoever has God
Lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

Santa Teresa de Jesús
(Santa Teresa de Ávila)

Decided to go back to this thread as looking back on the events of last year and having a clearer perspective of those events, I realized I was a bit shallow in my wording here. It wasn’t just about me being silenced in matters of the heart; it was also about me being silenced when it comes to theology/philosophy/liturgy. So many opportunities to show the beauty of Catholic teaching lost because of others’ mocking/silent treatment/judgment. Heck, I’ve even developed anxiety over these things and the triggers still bewilder me. But I am getting help and… finding out more about my condition and I guess in time, I’ll be better able to deal with it. Now, I pray for healing in all aspects. I pray I may be able to move past the hurts dealt me. I pray that the people may see the truth. I pray that I may stop being unmerciful simply because others were unmerciful to me. I pray as well and offer my sufferings for those silenced in other ways too.

I go back to the time I was awed by the EF and pray again, as I did that time: Introibo ad altare Dei. Ad Deum qui laetificat juventutem meam. Gloria Patri…
