PLEASE PRAY THAT GOD AFFORDS ME THE GRACE TO CONTINUALLY WORK ON MY MIND, MY CHARACTER AND MY WEAKNESSES. THERE ARE THINGS ABOUT MY LIFE THAT OBVIOUSLY I CANNOT CHANGE, AND I TRULY WANT TO GOING FORWARD CREATE AND STRIVE FOR GREATER, YET HUMBLER AND SIMPLER THINGS IN MY LIFE. I TRUST IT ALL TO CHRIST'S MOST UNFATHOMABLE MERCY. BUT MY MIND STILL NEEDS HEALING, MY SCARS SOFTENED AND MY MEMORY GALVANIZED BY LOVE. I HAVE MY LIMITATIONS AND I KNOW AND TRULY BELIEVE IN THE IMMENSE EFFICACY OF PRAYER, ESPECIALLY FROM CONSECRATED RELIGIOUS BROTHER AND SISTERS IN CHRIST.
PLEASE LORD, ALLOW MY WORDS, MY RESOLVE AND DISPOSITION SPEAK INHERENTLY TO MY LOVE FOR YOU. YOU KNOW THE MENTAL ILLNESS THAT PLAGUES MY FAMILY, PLEASE HEAL ME AND MY LOVED ONES AND HELP ME CHANNEL ALL THE PAIN TO CONTINUALLY CARRY MY CROSS OUT OF LOVE FOR YOU, SO THAT WHEN MY JUDGEMENT IS UPON ME, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO LOOK AT ME AND SAY, "I KNEW THIS MAN, WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT."
-PLEASE PRAY FOR MY FATHER, WHO SUFFERS TERRIBLY FROM DEPRESSION AND HIS ADDICTIONS.
-MY MOTHER WHO HERSELF STRUGGLES WITH UN-FORGIVENESS, IMMENSE ADDICTION TO NICOTINE AND CAFFEINE, AND HAS A LITANY OF HEALTH ISSUES.
-THEIR HOME IS A PLACE OF IMMENSE REGRET FOR BOTH OF THEM AND A CONSTANT REMINDER OF FAILURE. THEY BOTH HOARD AND ALLOW THEIR HOME TO FALL APART BEFORE THEIR VERY EYES.
-PLEASE ST. JOSEPH, COME AND HELP ME FIX MY PARENTS HOME AND MAKE IT A PLACE OF REFUGE, PEACE, JOY AND ABOVE ALL, LOVE FOR THE LORD.
-LASTLY PLEASE PRAY FOR MARGIE GRECCO, A WOMAN MY WIFE AND I ARE HELPING GET HER LIFE BACK TOGETHER. SHE IS A FALLEN AWAY CATHOLIC, AND STRUGGLES WITH IMMENSE DEPRESSION & LACK OF SELF-RESPECT AND SELF-LOVE. PLEASE HELP HER JESUS SEE YOUR WAY.
