Today’s Blessing Prayer: Wednesday greetings and blessings to all! I hope and pray you are continuing to navigate through these late February days with faith and a hopefulness for the future.
Once again, I offer you Pope Francis’ Prayer… O Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope. We entrust ourselves to you, and the Health of the Sick. At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith. You, Salvation of All People, know what we need. We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee, joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial. Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform ourselves to the Father’s will and to do what Jesus tells us: He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us, through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen. We seek refuge under your protection, O Holy Mother of God. Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin. (Prayer Composed by Pope Francis) I would like to pause and remember my mother today on this 105th anniversary of her birth. February 23rd was always a special day and I tried never to forget it especially in the last years of her life. Mom, have a wonderful birthday today in heaven! Enjoy yourself and know that we love you and miss you! Well, my friends, my prayer of blessing today is that you will have a great day. May whatever this day becomes for you be life giving. May whomever you meet bring a positive spirit to your day. May any travels this day be easy and safe. May God’s love and presence be with you and all whom you love today and always! Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul
