Our God, we pray to You for others and ourselves, and sometimes it seems, if only for a time, a time of awful pain and loneliness, that no one is listening, that You are not there.

Many have turned away, disappointed and bitter, that You appear not to have answered their urgent prayer, their painful need for self and for others. There is no satisfactory human answer to their challenge, whatever one might say of Your ways, Your time, because their anguish or their anger is the reality they experience.

Dear God, You need no reminder that we are human in our minds and hearts and bodies. In the ordinary events, and in the traumatic ordeals of our lives, we often have little or no actual sense or knowledge of ourselves as spirit.

If You sometimes seem not to touch us as human beings living in a physical world that we acutely experience, then some of us may falter in faith and hope.
I pray for all who struggle in faith, with all my heart and life.

Our God let us hear Your voice in the words of others, and let us be Your love spoken to those who have lost their way. Yet may I ask that You also speak directly to their hearts and minds with unmistakable Love even where we cannot detect the action of Your Spirit in ourselves or in others. Speak to them in their last moments, if not before.

Please be mindful of our needs, and nurture us as we pray and seek Your healing and care. Embrace all who have losing their hope in God and prayer.
 
I just said a prayer for those struggling with faith. God bless you.
 
Lord, what can souls as for in times of not seeing the answers to their prayers but to cry to you to have mercy. Lord, have mercy on all such souls and grant them at least mere crumbs from the table (Matt. 15:27) which they do not yet see. Lead them through the mystery of suffering and accept their cries in union with your Passion. Grant them graces for faith, joy, and fortitude. Have mercy, Lord. Our Lady, pray with us. Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

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.

REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to 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.

Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . Amen

May the most Sacred Heart of Jesus
Be adored and loved in all Tabernacles
