The Mystical Body

[Joy2day]

I was watching star wars recently & there were a few occasions when yoda & ob1 kenobi doubled over in pain at the same time that great suffering or evil had occurred against others allied with the jedi &/or the rebellion. Yoda would say ‘i felt a great disturbance in the force’. & I realised that this is very similar to the pain that sin causes the Mystical Body & to Christ when we sin.

Let us pray a lot for each other & help each other to do what is right rather than revel in the fact that ‘we’re all human’ & celeborate our frailties. Each one of us has the capacity to uphold the good & create a better culture - why dont we?

Prayer of Supplication

O Holy Souls, as one truly devoted to you I promise never to forget you,
and continually to pray to the Most High for your release.
I beseech you to respond to this offering which I make to you,
and obtain for me from God,
with Whom you are so powerful on behalf of the living,
that I may be freed from all dangers of soul and body.
I beg both for myself and for my relations and benefactors,
friends and enemies, pardon for our sins,
and the grace of perseverance in good, whereby we may save our souls.
Obtain for us peace of heart; assist us in all our actions;
succor us promptly in all our spiritual and temporal needs;
console and defend us in our dangers.
Pray for the Supreme Pontifff,
for the exaltation of Holy Church, for peace between nations,
for Christian rulers, and for tranquility among peoples;
and grant that we may one day all rejoice together in paradise.
Amen.

Sounds like this, eh?

If [one] part suffers, all the parts suffer with it; if one part is honored, all the parts share its joy.
