Hey everyone. I need prayers because my health is declining. I have a skin infection, my asthma has been getting worse, and I’d also appreciate prayers for my shoulder injuries. My mental illnesses aren’t doing too well either as I have been very depressed and moody lately. I see my psychiatrist in about two weeks. I see my doctor on Thursday so I’ll address the first two things while there and I start physical therapy tomorrow. Thank you in advance for your prayers. I’m sorry to burden you all with this prayer request as I know there are others out there whose health is far worse than mine. Still, I’m kind of worried about my health.
 
Oh, honey, your prayer request is never a burden. It is our privilege to pray for you. I see you’re in the Diocese of Evansville - I was born in Evansville.

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 with this confidence, I fly to 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.
 
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 and was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, a sorrowful sinner. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen
 
Holy Mother, please comfort Holly and intercede with our Lord on her behalf.

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary! Amen.
 
Prayer is never a burden, dear one…

Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your 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.
For Thine is the Kingdom
and the Power
and the Glory for ever and ever.
Amen.

Ave Maria, gratia plena,
Dominus tecum,
benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui Iesus.
Sancta Maria mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae.
Amen
 
Holly,
I know it doesn’t help the aches and pains, but offer it up for the poor souls in purgatory. I always say, “Dear Jesus, I’m offering up these pains to you. I don’t know what you want them for… but you can have them because I don’t know what else to do with them…”
I’m praying for you, Holly.

Jesus, give Holly some comfort and peace. Let her feel your love for her in the midst of her pain. Amen
 
I love to pray for people and I would love to pray for you! It brings me joy!

As you know, this IS the place for prayer!
🙂

Dear Lord,
You said to come unto You for rest, and
tonight, as I read this prayer request
for healing and peace, I ask You to grant
this sister a special time where she is free
of pain and can get that rest in You. Energize
her body Lord so she can persevere in her
day and be able to get some things done.
Help her to feel Your presence is always with
her even when she feels she is fighting this
alone, and I pray Lord that she knows there
ARE others like her who sometimes have to
take just one “minute” at a time.
Thank You for Your unending Love ~
Amen. ❤️

:gopray: :highprayer:
 
Thank you again for your prayers everyone. I really appreciate them. I believe your prayers are helping me. I have not been in much pain tonight and my mood has been pretty good pretty much all day yesterday and all night tonight. As for the infection, I’m not sure if it is getting better or worse.
 
Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . Amen

Thanks again everyone. I greatly appreciate your prayers.

As of today I am feeling quite a bit of depression and my various chronic pain issues are acting up today. However, I do have good news. It seems that the infection I have is getting better. I also talked to my mom about it and she cleared up some misconceptions I had and told me how to take care of it here at home until I see my doctor. I was quite grateful for her advice. I am also very grateful for your prayers. I believe I would be worse than what I am were it not for your prayers and God’s grace and assistance as well as the prayers of the saints and so I thank you for your prayers. 🙂

I will continue to update you all periodically as my health situation changes.

Also, I know this is a very minor issue but it is important to me. My cat, Precious, whom I love very much has been somewhat sick with her allergies bothering her lately. I would take her to the veterinarian but there is not a whole lot they can do and what they can do is expensive. I am pretty sure she doesn’t need antibiotics. If she did, I’d take her. Thank you in advance to those of you who choose to remember my cat in your prayers as well as my health.
 
Holy Mother, please continue to comfort Holly and intercede with our Lord on her behalf for her intentions.
