This is a prayer for myself.
I have lived the majority of my life in clinical depression, with a moderate to severe case of attention-deficit disorder. Combined with a horrific home life and a just as equally terrible social life, and a feeling of weakness and emasculation. The result has been unemployment, the inability to find a spouse, or friends, or acceptance or respect within my family. My sufferings will not be in vain, though, because I offer this pain up to Our Lord Jesus. I thank Him for giving me this opportunity.
But now I ask for strength, blessing and an antithesis of that which I have experienced. I ask the Lord to change me, to give me the ability to love others as He did. I ask Him for his mercy, that He may transform the experiences of my life - and in many ways He has already done so. He has given me a temporary-to-permanent job, an opportunity to provide for myself, and allowed me to do some of His work there. Send the Holy Spirit to change me further, that I may find a life that is devoid of sin and filled with Your goodness. And one day soon, the empty spaces in my heart may be filled, and I will have much of myself to share with others.
I thank God for His blessing, and all He has done, and ask the Blessed Mother, all the angels, St. Anthony, St. Maximillian Kobe, and all the other saints, to pray for me, and I call upon those that read this message to pray for me as well. Amen.
