So scared my cancer treatment is not working

[Abba]

Abba, your attitude is exemplary for a Catholic. You have dared to face reality head on. Not many have the courage to do that.

Thank you.

Actually, I felt scared, however brief, when I realized my situation. But, I immediately clung to the Lord. Every so often it hits me when I consider my near future and it is frightening, but this only last for as long as the fear is recognized then as if instinctively, I hold on tight to the robe of Jesus, like a two-year-old holding on to a security blanket. I am not going to let go until I pass this dark and unknown valley.

I prayed for healing but only if it is good for the salvation of my children and myself. It’s up to God. If He is calling me then so be it. I think the Lord has heard my prayers of requesting peace and strength and to be a good example to others and my children as I go thru this.

I do feel at peace and I do feel strong. I do see it as a blessing to know ahead of time and be able to prepare and work on leaving things organized for my children. I also get to be around as they prepare for as they put it: Life Without Mom. I get to be around as they prepare for the transition to life without mom. They are at peace as well and this because of their faith. But, we do take it one day at a time. I am living one day at a time. These may be my better days and so I enjoy them and try to be productive.

The good little thief The last time I heard that expression was from a nun at a convent back in the 70s. I was at the convent’s little store and I don’t remember if she offered to give a discount or how the conversation came to be. But, I remember she told me they had given her the nickname of ‘The Good Little Thief’ because she was giving discounts to everyone or too many at the little convent store.

Well, I sure hope I make it to heaven or purgatory. If I do, I will pray for you. Please pray for me and my children.

May God bless you,

Abba

 

[Abba]

Thank you so much. Each and every one of you. You’re prayers mean a lot to me. I’m keeping all of you in my prayers, too.

Mary, you showed yourself to Bernadette
in the crevice of the rock.
In the cold and grey of winter,
you brought the warmth, light and beauty
of your presence,

In the often obscure depths of our lives,
in the depth of the world where evil is so powerful,
bring hope,
return our confidence!

You are the Immaculate Conception,
come to our aid, sinners that we are.
Give us the humility to have a change of heart,
the courage to do penance.
Teach us to pray for all people.

Guide us to the source of true life.
Make us pilgrims going forward with your Church,
whet our appetite for the Eucharist,
the bread for the journey, the bread of life.

The Spirit brought about wonders in you, O Mary :
by his power, he has placed you near the Father,
in the glory of your eternal Son.
Look with kindness
on our miserable bodies and hearts.
Shine forth for us, like a gentle light,
at the hour of our death.

Together with Bernadette, we pray to you, O Mary,
as your poor children.
May we enter, like her, into the spirit of the Beatitudes.
Then, we will be able, here below,
begin to know the joy of the Kingdom of Heaven
and sing together with you :
Magnificent !

Glory to you, Virgin Mary,
blessed servant of the Lord,
Mother of God,
dwelling place of the Holy Spirit!

Amen.

Continued prayers for Anthony’s Mom, and adding Abba to my prayers as well.

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.

Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

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.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

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

Prayer for a Miracle

God of all creation, you who spoke a simple command and brought forth light from
the darkness, I ask you now to send forth your miracle-working power to heal Anthony(name removed by moderator). You cleansed the lepers, opened the eyes of the blind and by
speaking a simple command, you empowered the crippled to rise up and walk.
You sent forth your life-giving power to all those in need, including those you raised from
the dead. I ask you to send forth your healing power into Anthony(name removed by moderator)'s body and give him the strength to fight his illness. I ask this through my Lord, Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen

Prayer to St. Anthony for Those With Cancer

Dear St. Anthony, you recognized Our Lord Jesus as the Divine Healer. In your goodness and kindness, please intercede for Anthony(name removed by moderator), who is suffering from cancer. If it is God’s will, may the gift of healing be granted to him. Comfort him during times of unbearable pain, and ask our Lord to grant him peace and patience in suffering. May God give him the fullness of life here on earth. Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

Prayer for Cancer Healing**

Loving Father, I come before you trusting in your goodness, kindness
and the power of your healing love as I lift up to you my sickness.
Heal me, Lord, of my cancer of the ovaries.
Lord, you know all things, you can do all things and I know you love me very much.
Only you know what is best for me and what I need in terms of healing.
As I sit before you now lay your hands upon me, touch me,
heal me and bring me wholeness of body, mind, emotions and spirit.

Let the grace of your divine love and power flow to me right now to reach the
inner recesses of my being and spread to the different parts of my body.
Take away any pain or feeling of discomfort.
Correct any malfunctioning of my bodily organs and tissues.
Melt with the heat of your healing love all abnormal and cancerous growths.
Arrest the further spreading of those sick cells and create in me new and healthy cells.

And then, dearest Lord, after I have been healed may my life be a witness to your love,
peace and healing power for others and bring glory, honor and praise to you.
All these I pray in the name of Jesus, through the intercession of Mary
and all the saints and angels.
Amen.
