"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."

Yes, I pray the rosary every day. When I'm sick it's often the only prayer I can say. We need to promote the praying of the rosary before every Mass in all parishes, praying it at home in the family, too. Our Lady of Fatima asked that we pray it for peace and the conversion of sinners. If it was important in 1917, how much more important is it now?
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right, Barb!. Why do we ignore the two greatest spiritual weapons and gifts given to us sinful creatures - the Eucharist and the Rosary?
