O God, I humbly implore…
In my lack of trust, let me live faith.
In my disappointment, let me live hope.
In my bleakness, let me live joy.
In the emptiness of my heart, let me live love.
In my deprivations, let me value what is precious before You.
In my weakness and illness, grant me spiritual health.
In my anger and resentment, let me live generosity and forgiveness.
In my detachment, let me live community.
In the difficulties of commitment, let me be dedicated.
In my failures, let Your Spirit bless and heal.
In my successes, let Your will be served.
In human reality, let me live spiritual wisdom.
In maturity, let me become true child of the Father.
In my individuality, let me live in Eucharistic communion.
In the kind and warm things that I try to do, let Your grace flow.
In the confusion of my life, in my striving and good intentions
—regardless of my doubts, mistakes and infirmities, let me fully live Your will in vibrant, humble trust.
***Amen.

Prayer to St. Jude
( Patron of Desperate Causes )
St. Jude, apostle of Christ, the Church
honors and prays to you universally as the
patron of hopeless and difficult cases. Pray
for us in our needs.
Make use, we
implore you, of this powerful privilege
given to you to bring visible and speedy
help where help is needed. Pray that we
humbly accept the trials
and disappointments and mistakes which
are a part of our human nature.
Let us see the reflection of the sufferings of
Christ in our daily trials and tribulations.
Let us see in a spirit of great faith and hope
the part we even now share in the
joy of Christ’s resurrection, and which we
long to share fully in heaven. Intercede
that we may again experience this joy in
answer to our present needs if it is God’s
desire for us.(Here, make your request).
We know our prayers will be heard
through Your intercession. Amen.
