@BreeSolstad Looks like she just placed her hand in the child’s head. Before my daughter’s communion the EM would always say “Jesus Loves you” as he/she touched her head.
Was the EM supposed to ignore the child? IMO that’s more hurtful. Then the child feels ignored.
Rewatching @paramountplus Legends of the Hidden Temple with my daughter & realizing the simplicity of the ‘90s. These kids are out here fighting to win on a tv show & the consolation prize is tuna. @StarKistCharlie They may not have won but they had a delicious tuna sandwich.
@matthewdmarsden As a Catholic, I’ve never felt closer to God than I do during Adoration. I can hear him speaking to me when I’m there. It’s something you can’t explain unless you’ve experienced it.
Every religion is flawed because they are run by man, only Jesus himself is perfect.
@Kpedeaux It’s like someone cracked open a jar of roux that’s been bottled for years. It’s teeming with flavor and overfollowing with nostalgic aromas. His writing reminds us of who we once were and yet how time never changes the core of who we will become. He’s such a treasure!
The Prayer That Has Never Failed
THE MEMORARE
It's the most powerful Marian prayer in history....
For nearly 1000 years,Catholics have turned to this prayer in their moments of need.
The Memorare is a prayer so powerful that saints,popes,and countless faithful have witnessed miracles after praying it :
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known
that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help,
or sought thy intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence
I fly unto thee,
O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To thee do I come,
before thee I stand,
sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Memorare is rooted in Church Traditions. Prayed by St. Bernard of Clairvaux, St.Teresa of Calcutta, and St. Francis de Sales.
Many saints have turned to this prayer in life or death moments, and miracles followed instant intercession.
Blessed Pope Pius IX said,
"This prayer has never failed me.
Do you pray the Memorare everyday ?
