Hi Everyone! I’ve been working on a book project on and off for some years now, and I want to keep working on it but I am discouraged because I feel like I’m not good enough or holy enough to make a good book. Could I have some prayers of encouragement and that I won’t despair? And that I can feel confident that I am doing something good? 😊

Thank you!
 
May the Holy Spirit be your guide.
God can act through any of us whether we feel worthy or not, and whether we feel we are “made” of clay or of gold…

2 Corinthians 4:7 Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE)

7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the transcendent power belongs to God and not to us.
 
Praying for you. If a hack like me can write books, you surely can! 🙂
 
Praying for you…

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.

Prayer Against Depression
………….By St Ignatius of Loyola

O Christ Jesus
When all is darkness
And we feel our weakness and helplessness,
Give us the sense of Your Presence,
Your Love and Your Strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
In Your protecting love
And strengthening power,
So that nothing may frighten or worry us,
For, living close to You,
We shall see Your Hand,
Your Purpose, Your Will through all things.

Amen.

†

Let Nothing Disturb You

Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.

Patience,
Obtains all things,
Whoever has God
Lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

Santa Teresa de Jesús
(Santa Teresa de Ávila)
 
May the Holy Spirit guide you and lift your HEART,so that you may finish what your doing. AMEN
