I have days of great faith and piety, where I can pray and am sensible of Our Lord (I think); and then I have days of great unbelief (like now) where I am convinced that its all utter rubbish.

Martin Luther wrote that unbelief was the root and main cause of all sin, and I think I agree with him.

Please, I implore you, pray that the Lord would grant me the absolute conviction of **unshakeable faith **in Him, because otherwise I will persist in this sort of paralysis, unable to serve Him and unable to get on with my life…

Yours in Christ
 
Lord, please grant Tannhausser deep faith. May he give his assent to faith even when he finds himself doubting - this would constitute an act of faith, which will deepen his faith. Help him not give into distrust because distrust hurts you the most. You told this to St. Faustina and I believe you. Help Tannhausser to trust in you and to say the prayer “Jesus, I trust in you!” over and over until it helps him. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
 
Sts. Peter and Joseph, pray for unshakable faith for Tannhausser.
 
St. Michael the Archangel,
Defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray
and do Thou O prince of the heavenly host
By the power of God cast into hell Satan
And all the evil spirits
Who prowl around the world
Seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
 
Praying for your faith…

*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.*
 
Praying for you with three Bible verses of the day from today’s Liturgy of the Hours … looks like this was meant just for you:

Mid-morning reading (Terce) Romans 1:16-17 ©
The power of God saves all who have faith – Jews first, but Greeks as well – since this is what reveals the justice of God to us: it shows how faith leads to faith, or as scripture says: The upright man finds life through faith.

Noon reading (Sext) Romans 3:21-22 ©
God’s justice that was made known through the Law and the Prophets has now been revealed outside the Law, since it is the same justice of God that comes through faith to everyone who believes.

Afternoon reading (None) Ephesians 2:8-9 ©
It is by grace that you have been saved, through faith; not by anything of your own, but by a gift from God; not by anything that you have done, so that nobody can claim the credit.
…
 
Father in Heaven,
ever-living source of all that is good,
keep me faithful in serving You.
Help me to drink of Christ’s Truth,
and fill my heart with His Love
so that I may serve You in faith
and love and reach eternal life.
In the Sacrament of the Eucharist
You give me the joy of sharing Your Life.
Keep me in Your presence.
Let me never be separated from You
and help me to do Your Will.
