A group of professionals were maneuvering in such a way that I became weary of their behavior. It turns out that I was correct in what they were trying to do but even the confrontation, although civilized and all; was draining for me. I already have enough problems is how I felt and why don’t these people take the proper amount and go on with their life. Why try to take more and really steal from me when they were already making a nice chunk and an amount they will not see again in a long time? It was draining to say in effect; hey, what are you doing? What’s going on? Let’s see everything before anything. And lo and behold, they were trying to swindle me out of $10,000. That’s a lot of money!

I could not believe it! I am really drained, I have a seriously ill child and I don’t want to be bothered by white collar thieves. So, the problem remained, I confirmed the discrepancy and now I had to make sure it was taken care of without it costing me an arm and a leg. So, I would have to put on my lawyer hat ( I have a cleaning person hat, chef hat, cook hat, I have all sorts of hats…). But, I was not looking forward to it. I thought, wow, if I had a little transaction like the one they had and made a nice change as the one they made, I would be feeling good. Why ruin it by trying to deceive etc… and I thought of bad spirits etc… and decided to light a candle to Saint Michael the Archangel and pray for his intercession. Well, it worked! He heard my prayers. I am happy. Boy, I had people calling me at 7:30 in the am even before office hours and I have it in writing now - so no $10,000 added. My candle is still burning and I am praying the prayer every day for now until the candle burns out. 🙂 It works, I really contribute the assistance to the intercession of Saint Michael.
 
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.

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

Amen.

Thank you pollylodges, liturgy96 and tawny for joining me in prayer. I am still astonished. These licensed professionals delayed me getting proper medical attention for my child as I am waiting for funds to go abroad, just so they could attempt to steal 10K. It’s the kind of thing that makes me want to move to the mountains and raise sheep and live a nice quiet life. I am sadden for them and if you only knew how much they are getting. Talk about greed and a serious lack of consideration for the well being of others.

They were trying to go behind my back and get funds released to them without my signature and once they had the funds, they would claim xyz and so 10K. As the delays were no longer justified they needed to be explained and documents that were said would be sent were never sent and everything started to make me wonder what they were up to. Then I thought the forbidden (deception, fraud, white collar crime) and bang! I got them. I first thought, but it couldn’t be they are trying to do ‘x’ and yeap they were.

Yeah, it’s the kind of stuff that makes me want to live in a quiet farm or some peaceful place. I meant to type in the OP ‘attribute’ the intercession to Saint Michael the Archangel. The day I lit that candle with the prayer and ‘image’ of Saint Michael and started asking him to intercede it’s like the atmosphere got lighter. And, people started backing out.

I just wanted to share this. I hope it encourages others to pray to Saint Michael the Archangel when people are being deceptive etc… and being inspired by not nice thoughts and acting on them. :rolleyes:

Peace.

Acordaos (Memorare)
Acordaos, ¡oh piadosísima Virgen María!,
que jamás se ha oído decir
que ninguno de los que han acudido
a vuestra protección,
implorando vuestro auxilio,
haya sido desamparado.
Animado por esta confianza,
a Vos acudo, oh Madre, Virgen de las vírgenes,
y gimiendo bajo el peso de mis pecados
me atrevo a comparecer ante Vos.
Oh madre de Dios, no desechéis mis súplicas,
antes bien, escuchadlas
y acogedlas benignamente. Amén.

San Miguel Arcángel
San Miguel Arcángel,
defiéndenos en la batalla.
Sé nuestro amparo contra la perversidad
y acechanzas del demonio.
Reprímale Dios, pedimos suplicantes,
y tú, Príncipe de la Milicia Celestial,
arroja al infierno con el divino poder a Satanás y
a los demás espíritus malignos
que andan dispersos por el mundo
para la perdición de las almas.
Amén.

ORACIÓN POR LA PAZ
Señor, haced de mí un instrumento de paz.
Que allí donde haya odio, ponga yo amor;
Donde haya ofensa, ponga perdón;
Donde haya discordia, ponga unión;
Donde haya error, ponga verdad;
Donde haya duda, ponga fe;
Donde haya desesperación, ponga esperanza;
Donde haya tinieblas, ponga vuestra luz;
Donde haya tristeza, ponga yo alegría.

¡Oh, maestro!
Que no me empeñe tanto
en ser consolado como en consolar;
en ser comprendido como en comprender;
en ser amado como en amar,
pues dando, se recibe,
olvidando, se encuentra,
perdonando, se es perdonado,
muriendo, se resucita a la vida eterna.

Remember,
O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that any one who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help or sought thy intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with 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 thy Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in thy clemency hear and answer me.
Amen

Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with Thee;
Blessed art thou among women,
And blessed is the fruit of thy 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.
 
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the malice and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.

in the insincerity of those I trusted,
in the unfaithfulness of those on whom I relied.

Let me put myself aside,
to think of the happiness of others,
to hide my little pains and heartaches, so
……that I may be the only one to suffer from them.

Teach me to profit by the suffering that comes across my path.
Let me so use it that it may mellow me,
……not harden nor embitter me; that it may make me patient, not irritable;
……that it may make me broad in my forgiveness,
……not narrow, haughty and over-bearing.

May no one be less good for having come within my influence.
No one less pure, less kind, less noble for having been a
……fellow-traveler in our journey toward Eternal Life.

As I go my rounds from one distraction to another,
let me whisper, from time to time, a word of love to Thee.
May my life be lived in the supernatural, full of power and good,
……and strong in its purpose of sanctity.

Let Nothing Disturb You
Let nothing disturb you
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.

Patience,
Obtains all things,
Whoever has God
Lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

Santa Teresa de Jesús
(Santa Teresa de Ávila)
