I have a question about the 54 Day Novena to Our Lady.

If you are not familiar this novena is a series of prayers and reflections connected to a daily recitation of the rosary. For 27 days you ask for a particular grace, followed by 27 days of thanking for that grace whether you have received it or not.

I was saying the prayer while looking for a job. I was looking for something on the radio or in the nonprofit sector, as these are my areas of expertise. 3 days into the novena I was hired as a college professor.

My question is: Should I change the remaining 23 days of asking for a grace to days of thanks (in addition to the 27 days of thanks)?

I feel a little silly praying for a job when I have one.
 
Congratulations on the job 🙂

I wish I had a proper response, but I am not very familiar with the novena either, today is my 2nd day.

My mom said that you can continue praying for the job (that it would be successful) that no prayer goes to waste 🙂 Hope that helps a bit.
