Prayer for repentance

[Bdonoho]

I am struggling with shame by posting here all the time. I just need prayer during this period of my life more than I ever have before, because my own instability, lack of faith and purity makes it hard for me to pray when I’ve sinned or am being tested. I wanted to ask for prayer that I would be given the grace to truly repent and find my stability in God and repent of my trepidation and avoidance of reading and studying Scripture. I know my feelings are deceptive, but there is this deep sense that I am estranged from God and experiencing chastisement for my lack of love, trust and respect for Him. I also am guilty of praying and practicing as a Catholic because it has given me emotional stability and comfort, even when I was completely unsure if it was true. I have become a fool, and I need to become like the person in Psalm 1, because right now I’m like the wicked who are blown to and fro by feelings and circumstances.

I am going to talk with my Spiritual Director about this, in hopes that he can help me.

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.

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.

Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning,
is now,
and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.

Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

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.

Lord, when we doubt, give us perseverance.
when we are being pulled away from you, give us your arm to hold onto.
when we are confused about the Truth, fill us with the desire to seek the knowledge that is in Your Word.

Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Amen.
