A far greater Catholic than me (obviously, hypocrite that I am), Mother Theresa, had a long dark night of the soul, I’ve read.

My prayers for you, Martha.
 
Many people may not be aware but Martha and her family have suffered greatly.Marthat is an example of courage and strength of faith at its very best.Martha is an example to us all.
May God bless you and your always dear Martha and thankyou for your faith and trust in the Lord.

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.
 
As past threads have shared, she has been through the rape of her daughter, court cases, and appeals, with no personal support. Her son has been maimed in surgeries that failed, and she has slipped into depression.
Jesus please heal and restore her and her children, and let them live in peace, happiness, and faith.
I will keep her in my prayers most fervently!
MEMORARE TO SAINT ANNE
TO OBTAIN A SPECIAL FAVOUR
Remember, O glorious and Good Saint Anne,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored they help and sought thy intercession,
was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, behold,
I cast myself at they feet,
and beseech thee,
by thy great prerogative of being the Mother of the Queen of Heaven
and the Grandmother of Jesus,
come to my aid with thy powerful intercession,
and obtain from Almighty God
through the ever Blessed Virgin Mary,
this special favor which I beg of thee…

Cease not to intercede for me until,
through Divine Mercy,
my request may be granted.
Above all, obtain for me the grace one day
to behold my God face to face and with thee and Mary
and all the Saints praise and bless Him through all eternity.

Amen.

Prayer to St Jude for dear martha

Most holy apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of his enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many, but the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless causes, of things almost despaired of. Come to martha’s assistance in this great need that she may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all her necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly for martha and her family and that she may praise God with you and all the elect forever. I promise, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you.
Amen.
 
I will keep her in my prayers most fervently!

You’re going to be alright. Hang in there. Catholic and Non-Catholic alike, we all suffer. Sometimes I feel like giving up, too, and turning my back…

“Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast words of everlasting life…” (John 6:69).

Let’s face this together with our eyes set on Him.

Peace.

Loving Lord Jesus, whose hands are underneath our lowest feelings to support us as we rest in you. Hold martha in this dark place and sustain her life with your hope. Let the light of your love warm her heart, and your Holy Spirit, the comforter, be with her to lift her up. Amen.
