Prayer that a deep darkness will be lifted

[filios]

Hello everyone. I’m not going to go into any detail about what has happened since it doesn’t make much of a difference. The only thing that can help me now is prayer. I am 19 years old but life has finally knocked me to my knees and I can’t get up, so all I can do is say a desperate prayer. I have been going through so much over the past 8 years and I am exhausted. Simply put, I can’t go on anymore, not without a change. So please just ask the Lord that he will give me rest at least for a little while. Thanks and Happy Christmas.

Faith, Obedience, Trust: This is the way out of your deep darkness. Daily prayer is essential. Pray the Rosary every day if possible and attend Mass as often as possible. The Mass is actually the most powerful prayer that we have.

I will leave you with this prayer from Psalm 107: 10-22 (the Psalms being my favorite prayers):

Some were living in gloom and darkness,
fettered in misery and irons
for defying the orders of God,
for scorning the advice of the Most High;
who bent them double with hardship,
to breaking point, with no one to help them.

Then they called to Yahweh in their trouble
and he rescued them from their sufferings;
releasing them from gloom and darkness,
shattering their chains.

Let these thank Yahweh for his love,
for his marvels on behalf of men;
breaking bronze gates open,
he smashes iron bars.

Some, driven frantic by their sins,
made miserable by their own guilt
and finding all food repugnant,
were nearly at death’s door.

Then they called to Yahweh in their trouble
and he rescued them from their sufferings;
sending his word and curing them,
he snatched them from the Pit.

Let these thank Yahweh for his love,
for his marvels on behalf of men.
Let them offer thanksgiving sacrifices
and proclaim with shouts of joy what he has done.

Lord, hear our prayers

I’ll be praying for you, of course. some good advice was given to you about staying close to Jesus. Go to Mass, receive the sacrament of Penance, talk with your priest one on one about your difficulties. YOu are not alone, just remember that. Assk the Blessed Virgin Mary to take your concerns to her son, Jesus will not refuse his mother anything.

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you we cry, poor banished children of Eve,
to you we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us,
and after this our exile,
show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.
