I am 22 weeks pregnant after losing my daughter at 39 weeks 8 months ago. I have been battling fear, anxiety and spiritual dryness/confusion. I just found out a friend delivered her baby stillborn. I was feeling optimistic today for once and then I saw that she lost her baby and now I am in a very bad way. I am so confused as to why these things happen. I feel like my prayers are being ignored. Living in constant fear and anxiety is really taking its toll on me and my husband and 3 small children.
please pray that God will allow me to experience His grace and mercy - that I will be open to whatever He wants to bless me with. thank you.
 
Mother Mary, I commend this mother to you. Please ease her fears, calm her mind and help her to commit her problems to your maternal care. You are the undoer of knots, dearest Mother; please undo every knot that is complicating this mother’s life. May she trust in you to mediate on her behalf and may she do all in her power to seek first God’s kingdom and his justice, so she can have a blessed life free from excessive worry. May this mother lose her anxiety by means of a deep devotion to you and to your holy Rosary.

Hail Mary…

Amen.
 
Lord,

Please be merciful to this sister, who is full of fear and anxiety. She is haunted by the loss of her other child, and the child of her friend. Her feelings are understandable.

Help her, physically and emotionally. Let her feel Thy profound love and mercy. Grant her Your Peace.

Amen
 
Hi Hon, I feel for you. When I lost my daughter, it took awhile to “get my faith back” I realized that I had lost trust in God. I bought a Divine Mercy Poster, and hung it in a frame where I would see it every day. “Jesus, I trust in you!”

At first I was very angry with God. Then I came to realize that life & all that is good comes from God. Disease, & death come from sin, & Satan. God made us all to live together forever. That is why it feels so awful to lose your precious baby. But she is waiting for you in Heaven. Have you thought of having her intercede for you, & your family? You will hold her again some day!

I suffered PTSD. I felt anxious all the time, as if something tragic was going to happen to me at any momment. I worried about loosing the rest of my family. OK, I was plain miserable. I became physically ill, sometimes. I found praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy helped bring me peace. It helped me to calm down. We prayed as a family some times. This helped the whole family!

I encouraged my kids to pray for me. A couple of times I started getting upset, or angry, and then I heard my son saying the Our Father for me! It was sooo precious. It stopped me in my tracks, and made me smile.

Keep reaching out for help. The older I get, the more I appreciate my sisters in Christ. Know that I am praying for you. May God Bless your family!
 
Dear Lord, please help our sister. Hold her when she grieves. Be her comfort. Give her daily encouragement. Surround her with your healing Angels. May they hold her, and give her peace. Help her to sleep at night. I thank you for the blessing she is to the world. I thank you for the blessing she is to her family. Give her great courage as she brings new life into this world. Please Lord, give her peace, and calm. Let her know how much you love her!

Praying for you… God bless you.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
