Am over 70, trouble with health, no friends proximate (in new area), and been emotionally rough 9 mos + - worst of all, I can pray for others, but when I go to pray for help - I find my words feel hollow, although I know they are sincere, – I feel no spiritual connection at all - and this is not normally where I am - I feel like I am out of touch with Divine Mercy and I don’t know what happened – maybe because things have gotten worse? It frightens me that I think I have even lost hope that anything will change … I know God doesn’t always say yes, but if I don’t have my faith and hope, what do I do and where do I go… I intellectually know He is “here” - but I need more help right now and I can’t seem to find Him Thank you for your response in prayer, I am really struggling
 
Heavenly Father I honor You for the graces of Diane’s prayers for others.

Look kindly upon her now as she repeats the words of Your beloved Son Jesus as He also hung upon the cross, “Why have You abandoned Me?”
While she knows that she is being prepared for eternal holiness and joy in the multiplicity of trials that form her daily life, like Jesus, she is drained by the overwhelming pain, deprivation, and sorrow of this lonely time in her life.

Have mercy Father, and bless Diane with hope and faith even in these dark times.
Inspire her with Your faithful love for her, and embrace her in Your love.
 
Thank you for your beautiful reply, – I have copied it and will keep it with me - asking that when two or more are gathered in His Name - He hears and answers. God Bless you for your caring
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

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.

May the power of the Holy Spirit enlighten you and the help of the Blessed Mother Mary be with you.
Never give up on faith, there is always, inner peace and grace in faith in God.

What you are going through, Diane, is called a spiritual dryness. This is a time when we receive no emotional benefit from prayer, like you have been experiencing. This happens to everyone at one point or another in their lives. This is a time when Christ is most near to you, though you may not feel him near. We receive great rewards in heaven and more grace than normal we are still faithful in prayer with God during this time.

Keep the faith Diane. God still loves you, more than you can ever imagine. Just remember the Cross, of Christ’s Passion, of the ultimate show of Love that could ever be shown as done by Our Lord.

I will say a prayer for you.

God Bless.

We humbly ask You Lord, to pour forth Your grace to Diane who is going through a troubled time for the last nine months or so.

We ask you that by the balm of Your Grace, Diane will find peace of mind and a restoration of her faith in You.

We know that all our prayers are listened to and we beseech you to grant Diane this favour.
If this favour is not Your will, we ask to give Diane the strength to endure what she is enduring.

I pray this prayer to You.
 
(Saint Jude, pray now I pray you, that “DianeMLynch1” may
receive the great consolation from our Lord Jesus Christ.)

Praying that the Lord may comfort you and strengthen you.

O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!
