Oh God, who delight in
Innocence and restore it
Direct the hearts of your
Servants to yourself.
Collect for Mass of the Day - March 20, 2025
Dear God, Sister Miriam’s commentary today was about our pain and considering its source (Satan) as we learn to bring it to you. Honestly, I think I’ve done this through the years, and while there is still some sorrow over some of my pain, I think the pain has largely been dealt with. However, there are some people I love who are still in great pain, and I do want this healing for them.
I have this habit for two people who are really special to me of seeing a car like the one they drive and using that as an opportunity to pray for them. This week, it happened twice, once for each of them, that I just stopped and prayed for their healing. For their health. For their joy and happiness regardless of what it costs me.
Father, I am walking into a situation today that might be challenging. It has great potential to be challenging. Give me wisdom, shrewdness, love, grace, and complete unselfishness. Help me to love my neighbors as precious souls in your sight. Help me to be an instrument of your peace. If there is a need for me to share the Gospel, please help me to share your Gospel. But if I do it, I want to carefully do it well. Help me to do everything today under the complete direction of the Holly Spirit.
I pray this in Jesus and with your Holy Spirit,
Amen
