Life is hard, and Jesus said that too, and he was innocent yet punished and condemned to death. The love of the Trinity is in that we are given grace so we may attain heaven and be happy there after our trials, if we chose to cooperate.
 
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, I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in Thy mercy hear and answer me, Amen.
 
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

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 art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Prayer to Our Lady of Mental Peace

O Lady of Mental Peace, Mother of Tranquility,
and Mother of Hope, look upon Bren.soto
in this time of weakness and unrest.

Teach her searching heart to know that God’s
Love is unchanging and unchangeable, and
that true human love can only begin and grow
by touching His Love.

Let Your gentle Peace, which this world cannot
give, be always with her. And help her to bring
this same Peace into the lives of others.

Our Lady of Mental Peace, pray for us! Amen.

It is a terrible feeling to sense God has abandoned you. I have been there.
Praying for you to know God’s love for you. Keep praying the Rosary and going to Mass
and talking to God.
Do you have favorite saints to pray to for intercession?
 
The Trinity, to be more elaborating is the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit, One God in three persons. In the
Parable of the Prodigal Son, the father is like our Heaven-
ly Father, He has ALREADY forgiven the lost and gone
son(by merit of the death of Christ on the Cross), the only
thing that KEEPS the lost son from feeling Loved is repent-
ance(In returning and rest is your salvation, in quiet and
confidence is your strength [Is. 30:15]), the older son is
also not feeling loved b/c he obeys his father out of duty,
and do not see how much the Father Loves him. God is
Love [ 1 Jn. 4:16] God the Father is Love, God the Son
is Love, God the Spirit is Love!!

The son returned and the father restored him, out of love, even when he saw him returning, rather than punish him. The son was in self-exile.

Praying for you to accept God’s love. God loves you unconditionally because He is love by his very nature. We are of immense value because we were created in his image and likeness. In a sense we are his children. Our own experience of love by others is often very conditional. And we may not feel very love worthy. The beautiful thing about God’s love is that we do not have to earn his love. Consider how you love your own children, how you would do anything for them. Do they have to earn your love or did you love them even before they were born? You still love them even when they do wrong. You may get angry with them for a time but you still love them. God loves us like that except a million times more for his love is perfect.

No one knows us like God does. Yet he loves us completely. We long for someone to love us as we are. Yet only God can truly know us, even better than we know ourselves. Only in God can we truly have that sense of perfect unconditional acceptance to be loved as we are. For only he truly knows us.

“I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.” (Jer 31:3)
