May I ask your prayers for J, who is very much isolated and facing court in a few months. He’s lost his job, his girlfriend, has no family support. He’s repentant and scared.
May I ask prayers for him, that he will experience God’s loving presence and will receive all the graces God wishes for and through him. And that his repentance and good-will helps to mitigate the consequences of his actions, in his sincere efforts to reform his life.

Thank you for your prayers

"He [Jesus] has taken “‘the faults of many on Himself’, and when He appears a second time, it will not be to deal with sin but to reward with salvation those who are waiting for Him.” [Hebrews 9:28]

“Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” [Psalm 43:1]
 
Blessed Mother and St Jude as you prayed and interceded for my son in his past problems, please intercede on J’s and his girlfriends behalf. May the system be merciful and see that he has realized his mistake. Have Mercy on them Lord I pray :crossrc:

Peace & all good
 
Deliver him, Lord Jesus Christ,
from all his iniquities and from every evil,
make him ever hold fast to Thy commandments
and never allow him to be separated from Thee.

Amen.

For J that he will find guidance through his trials

PRAYER FOR TRUST
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.
(By St. Ignatius of Loyola, 1491-1556)
 
Lord Jesus,
I pray that God blesses J in every aspect of his life, openeing up new doors. I pray that J can feel free and not isolated with himself and forgive and forget what has happened in the past. In this I pray in Jesus’s name 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 thou among 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.
 
Lord, please help J… He is in great need and needs you at his side right now. Help things to go well for him at court and bless him with a good advocate and outcome. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer. Amen.
 
Dear Merciful Lord
I ask You to hear our prayers for J and grant him strength of faith,courage and ability
to cope with trials ahead.Please place Your healing hand upon the situations J faces
and heal them Amen
 
Loving God,

We lift up intentions for J and his situation. Please bless him, have mercy on him, and lead him to a full life in your service. We lift the following passage from Holy Scripture for J:

St. Paul’s Letter to the Colossians, Chapter 3:

Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if one has a grievance against another; as the Lord has forgiven you, so must you also do. And over all these put on love, that is, the bond of perfection. And let the peace of Christ control your hearts, the peace into which you were also called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, as in all wisdom you teach and admonish one another, singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or in deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Father please hear our prayers for J and grant him the help he needs in his life.

A Novena Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Sacred Heart of Jesus, we know that there is but one thing impossible to You: to be without pity for those who are in suffering or distress. Look down on us, we beg of You and grant us the grace which we humbly and earnestly implore, through the Immaculate Heart of Your most sorrowful Mother to whom You confided us as her children, and whose prayers are all powerful with You. Amen.
 
I just want to take this moment to thank you all for your kind prayers. Your support is much needed and appreciated. Sorry it took so long for me to reply. I was a bit overwhelmed by the response Trishie had gotten. Thank you again.
 
This poor guy…Please God, look out for him…

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.

Thank you for your prayers for J, who wrote that he felt uplifted by your prayers, whereas normally the dear man is unable to see light. So my deepest thanks for your prayers for our brother in Christ.

Prayed on J’s behalf:

Gospel virtues

Our God, please fulfil my desire to be the person You want me to be. Claim me for Yourself so that Your love triumphs over my sinful habits and selfish responses.
As I keep faith with Your Creation by proper care of my human needs, with Your grace, I ask Your grace to help me abstain from unchristian attitudes and activities. I desire grace to attribute to each spiritual, mental, and physical gift and achievement, its rightful service, without pride, despair, envy, or creation of artificial needs in self or in others.

Grant me a chaste heart that loves generously without subterfuge, sin, possessiveness or selfishness. Grant me to respect the goodness of Your Creation in others’ lives and mine, in chastity appropriate to my state and circumstance. Thus, my soul prepares for Your vision and already breathes Heaven’s life.

Let negative thoughts and imaginings never dominate even my darkest moments, for gloom demonstrates absence of faith and curtails Your expression of love in me. In place of self-doubt, please give me peaceful faith in Your will, so that I honestly accept my humanity, and trust You to win goodness out of failures and situations that appear hopeless.

In humility and obedience, I no longer have cause to be fearful or defensive. Pride and self-will evaporate before compassion for others. Doubt disappears before growing faith. Irritation and hasty judgement dissipate within generous patience and understanding. Loss and hurt quickly flow into acceptance of Your will and compassionate serving of others. Self-indulgence fades before reparation and appropriate self-discipline, to make me a channel of Your love to others.

I want to meet others joyfully, with unselfish love. I want to apply the kindliest interpretation to other’s intentions, regardless of appearance. I want to forgive gladly the instant offence occurs. I implore You to bless those who offend me as bounteously as You bless those who benefit me. I ask grace to face another’s negative behaviour with warmth and sympathetic kindness, and to fulfil another’s true needs cheerfully.

Behold me as I am, our God, with all that I would withhold from You and conceal from myself. Take me, God, with my faults along with the good already received of You. Have mercy and forgive me for all offence and failure. Let Your love flood over my lukewarmness. Use me as I am, and with each moment’s service convert me anew that I grow increasingly centred in You.

Our God, please hear my prayer and grant my desire to live in You even in my darkest times
 
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.
 
Thank you Trishie for pointing this need out to us.
As have those who answered before me, I will lift J up in my prayers.

Lord, grant J the forgiveness and mercy only You can extend to us and guide him in this difficult time. Lead J from true repentance to the joy of knowing Your love and Your mercy. Let him feel Your protection and safety and let him long only for You. I know that You will not let anything happen beyond what we can bear. Help him to be a servant of Yours wherever he may go from this day on and help him to fulfil You holy will.
