What a shame that so few of us really appreciate the Gift of having our loving Lord ever in our midst.
"A soul which does not practise the exercise of prayer is very like a paralyzed body which, though possessing feet and hands, makes no use of them." — St. Alphonsus Liguori

PRAYER TO BE PRESERVED FROM SUDDEN DEATH
MOST AMIABLE JESUS "I humbly implore Thee by Thy ignominious Scourging, The Crowning with Thorns, Thy Holy Cross, and by all Thy Goodness, not to permit me to pass out of this world without having received Thy most holy Sacraments." -Prayer of St. Vincent Ferrer
PRAYER OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA
"Eternal Father, all things are possible for You. Although You created us without our assistance, You will not save us unless we help. Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."

Wow! This shows how human Venerable Sheen was. Who among us has not felt anything at times when making a holy hour? But just showing up and waiting on the Lord shows a true relationship with him. I love my dog and all the dogs I've had. They show us what true devotion is. I will happily be the Lord's dog.
ReplyDeleteGuilty as well Barb! As imperfect as our time with Him may be, our faithfulness to such visits is a source of comfort and reparation to our loving Lord who is so frequently abandoned and ignored. Thank God he allows us dogs to come..
