Praise

[tenderlynew]

I have finally come to peace with TWO abortions with the continuing help of my Project Rachel counselor in Florida, I left there almost two years ago and this dear woman still answers me when I call. She said, you change others with affection, not anger, and I was finally able to forgive my mother, against whom I harbored terrible anger. That was the turning point. I was then able to ask Jesus for forgiveness, and to help me with forgiveness of myself.

These traumatic abortions interfered profoundly with my ability to take care of my born son, a child of the same father; we have divorced, I am most sorry to say, but it was a matter of life and death and I truly believe it was the Lord who “put us asunder.” Jesus permits divorce in the case of marital infidelity.

No God is no “imaginary friend.” He is Holy, Mighty, and Powerful.

Please pray for my son, in the name of St. Jude, and for St. Raphael to be his steady companion on his journey. He resides nearby with my mother and father.

Praise to St. Jude for healing in my own life, healing from the divorce, medical intervention with a desperate condition long unattended.

All Praise to Him on High!

Prayer of Thanksgiving to St. Jude
(To be said when a favor has been granted)

O Most sweet Lord Jesus Christ, in union with the unutterable heavenly praise with which the Most Holy Trinity extols Itself and which flows upon Your Sacred Humanity, upon Mary, upon all the angels and saints, I praise, glorify and bless You for all the graces and privileges You have bestowed upon your chosen apostle and intimate friend, Jude Thaddeus. I pray You for the sake of his merits, grant me Your grace, and through his intercession come to my aid in all my needs, but especially at the hour of my death deign to strengthen me against the rage of my enemies. Amen.

Prayer to St. Raphael

Vouchsafe, O Lord God, to send holy Raphael the Archangel to aid us: and may he whom we believe ever to stand before Thy Majesty, present our poor prayers to be blessed by Thee. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with The in the unity of the Holy Ghost, One God, world without end. Amen.

Prayer For Our Children

I know that, God, You’ve not ordained a family to be led by one,
but there’s no way to change the past or undo what has been done.
And so, dear Lord, I come today for Strength and Guidance too,
as I am a Single Parent and must depend solely on You!
I can’t depend upon myself because alone I cannot stand.
I need You standing by my side, holding onto my hand.
Oh, cover me, dear Jesus, with Meekness lest I see
old wounds of bitterness and pride reestablished deep in me.
’ve already asked forgiveness for what’s transpired in the past,
but I need constant Reassurance that I’m in Your will at last.
When I face ugly disappointments, let me draw on Your vast supply
of Wisdom and of Knowledge so I’ll do more than “just get by.”
A double-dose of Courage will help me stand up to Responsibility
so I’ll be a better parent, equipped with Stability.
Although my schedule’s very hectic with so much more to do,
teach me to be a Spiritual Leader as I daily lean on You.
Please help me to develop the skills my child needs to observe in me,
so that I can mend that tender heart and have Peace within my family.
Then help me squeeze in Quality Time to enjoy watching my child grow…
time to create Lasting Memories that come when Love and Happiness flow.
I promise, Lord, to follow You even when days seem too long or drear.
So help me hold tight to Your hand and eradicate my fear.
When I’m feeling desperate or lonely, give me Hope and Grace to see
that I never have been all alone… for You’ve been right there with me!

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.
