Prayers

Mary, Queen of Heaven, please be with me when I need reminding that, with God, all things are possible.

Lord Jesus, There is much in this world beyond what I can remedy, And so I come to You in prayer: For peace where there is war And for peacemakers; For the hungry and homeless And those who provide what they can; For the abandoned and abused And for unsung heroes; For the dehumanized and demoralized And for the gentle-hearted who bring hope....

Jesus, my Savior, I come to You today, To ask for Your blessing in prayer.

Loving God, Although Your ways are far above mine, Sometimes I wish I could see Why things happen the way they do Or purpose not apparent to me.

Lord Jesus, You willingly shared our life and have known both suffering and joy.

Loving Lord Jesus, I pray for victims of every kind, For hope in You, who were victimized, too.

Blessed Virgin Mary, Assumed into heaven to become its Queen, Your soul and body made perfect, Please pray for fulfillment of my hope Of joining you, despite my flawed humanity.

O Immaculate Mary, Assumed into heaven, you who are most blessed in the vision of God: of God the Father who exalted you among all creatures, of God the Son who willed that you bear Him as your Son and that you should be His Mother, of God the Holy Spirit who accomplished the human conception of the Savior in you....

Heavenly Father, Although today is in many ways like many others, Each day is uniquely Your gift.
