Prayers

Heavenly Father, You animate my being, and I ask for grace to fulfill Every task before me as I seek to do Your will.

My every prayer, Lord Jesus, I know that You hear.

Lord Jesus, Anyone might wonder Why You chose me as friend.

Blessed Virgin Mary, our gentle mother, Please bring comfort in times of sickness or discouragement, And ask Your beloved Son, Jesus, To heal those who are suffering Or to grant increased grace To remain faithful despite struggles in body, mind, or spirit.

Loving Father, May the cleansing from original sin Continue to make my spirit free, Not to do heedlessly what I want, But to choose the path You ask of me.

Loving God, I ask that there will always be within my heart a quiet room to meet You in serenity.

Lord Jesus, may I grow in faith day by day, with Mary and Joseph helping me to follow Your holy way.

Loving Father, on this day, many will struggle in the harshness of winter.

Father, our Creator, You call me ever closer, To be held and yet sent forth.

Lord God, I pray for perseverance among all who are destitute in body or spirit.
