Please pray for my 16 yr old newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic son.
he is afraid that God is punishing him for something. He is a very good, kind and wise child. not your typical 16 yr old kid. he is so loving, loyal and genuinely kind. he feels that he has done something wrong or that God is angry with him in some way. please please pray for him. please ask God to comfort him, and to let him KNOW God loves him entirely.
 
Lord Jesus Christ, you know all our pain and sorrow and bore them for us on the cross. In the pain which this dear son now experiences allow him to know your presence, strengthen his faith when he would despair, and give him the assurance of your eternal love. May the God of Love, Mercy and Compassion be with your son, so he can know the unfailing love of our Redeemer.
 
Dearest Lord,

Allow forcollin’s son to see Your Sacred Heart in his condition. Show him that Your heart is not filled with anger, but love; not with vengeance, but with mercy. I implore that you let him find consolation in your presence. We ask this in Your most Holy Name and through your most Sacred Heart. Amen.

Mother Mary, Health of the sick, Pray for us.
 
God may you send healing and strength to this family as they struggle with this and may your light and love shine throughout all they go through.

A good idea would be to remind your son of the story of Job and that rain falls on the good and the bad. But above all, pray with your son and help him come to terms with this life changing event.
 
Praying for him.

Perhaps you could read him John 9:1-3? That’s the verses where Jesus is asked if someone was blind because of a sin they committed and He says no. I hope that will help your son a little.
 
Our Father who art in heave hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come they 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 but deliver us from evil amen.
 
Lord, please comfort this son and let him know how deepy and infinitely you love him. May he know that his suffering is his means to sanctification and is not a punishment. May he be inspired to pray to you a whole lot and draw great strength and healing from prayer and the sacraments. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art 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.
 
Thank you all so very much. He is home now. i had him read the prayers you said for him, and they warmed his heart and encouraged his faith.
 
Thanks for the update.

Continuing prayers for your son’s good health …

Praying for your son.

Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to you.
Allow Your healing Hand to heal me.
Touch my soul with Your compassion for others;
touch my heart with Your courage and infinite Love for all;
touch my mind with Your Wisdom, and may my mouth always proclaim Your praise.
Teach me to reach out to You in all my needs, and help me to lead others to You by my example.
Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring me health in body and spirit that I may serve You with all my strength.
Touch gently this life which you have created, now and forever.
Amen.
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art 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 death.

Amen.

I will remember your son in my prayers this evening.

Also, may I suggest that you perhaps sit down with him and explain to him this passage from Scripture in which our Lord explicitly tells His disciples that God does not punish people for their sins in the way he seems to think is happening to him:

"At that very time there were some present who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. He asked them, ‘Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way they were worse sinners than all other Galileans? No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did. Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them—do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others living in Jerusalem? No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish just as they did.’" Luke 13:1-5

Your son might already know this, but sometimes it is difficult to know something both in your head and in your heart. My sympathies truly go out to him and I hope he may come to terms with his illness in time.
 
Forcollin:
When you have your son read the prayers, so he knows what they are:

Here is the Our Father in Latin:
Pater noster, qui es in coelis: sanctificetur nomen tuum: adveniat regnum tuum: fiat voluntas tua sicut in coelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie: et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem. Sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

Here is the Hail Mary in Latin:
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum; benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.

Here is the Glory Be to the Father in Latin:
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritu Sancto. Sicut erat in principio et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen
 
Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with Thee,
Blessed art 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.
