O Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, and Queen of the World, rule over us, together with the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ, Our King.
Save us from the spreading flood of modern paganism; kindle in our hearts and homes the love of purity, the practice of a virtuous life, an ardent zeal for souls, and a desire to pray the Rosary more faithfully.
We come with confidence to You, O Throne of Grace and Mother of Fair Love. Inflame us with the same Divine Fire which has inflamed Your own Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart.
Make our hearts and homes Your shrine, and through us, make the Heart of Jesus, together with your rule, triumph in every heart and home.
Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things.
Whoever has God lacks nothing;
God alone suffices.
― St. Teresa of Avila
Fr. Ripperger: “Now let’s be clear: it is inherently unjust to systematically neglect your prayer life. It’s a sin. Why? Because God created you. So everything about you must be rendered back to Him. That means you must return your mind & heart back to God through prayer. This is why St. Augustine said if you do not pray you will not be saved. It’s that simple.”
@Emma506131772 Oh for Pete's sake. Women in the US who actually veil don't worry about the color. I'm 55, never married, and 95% of the time wear black. Don't you have bigger issues to worry about in the Church and the world?
@JudsonCarroll1 You really seem like a fascinating guy with a lot of interests and knowledge. I'm sorry you haven't found a wife. As my recently dearly departed Mom always told me, life isn't fair. But not my will, His will be done.
@JudsonCarroll1 I understand, but try to always remember you are not alone. You have a guardian angel whose mission in life is for you to go to heaven. Talk to him. Also, the saints are a great help. Choose a favorite and become good friends. St Anthony is an incredible friend and intercessor.🙏
Fr. Ripperger: “Many striving for sanctity don’t wish to enter upon the way of suffering. They want to be Saints—but with sanctity that is easy. And when God tests them, they draw back. It is necessary to decide once & for all to embrace suffering as God wishes to send it to us.”
If you experience intense emotions and an obsessive mind, you are capable of fervent devotion to the Saviour. O Lord, convert and purify our restless hearts and misplaced affections!
