Connecting the Old Testament with the New Testament, beginning to learn about Vatican 2 and in light of what has happened with the Amazon Synod, this is what is on my heart.
HERE is a good article by Msgr. Charles Pope...it ends with some hope!
It also has a prayer that asks for a miracle, one that will stun the world.
When was the last time you actually ASKED God for a miracle???
Let's have some confidence in Our Lord!!! He does win in the end and we know that ANYTHING we ask for in His Sons name...in the name of Jesus Christ, He cannot refuse!
Have faith dear friends...have faith!
Don't forget to put on your "sackcloth & ashes" daily (fasting, praying and making reparations).
Choose something, sometime and just "offer it to God". Be penitential. Live penitential. Live for GOD!
HE needs to know we Love Him and are consciously choosing Him...not our daily/earthly idols!
Let us all turn our hearts and minds more towards God our Father, Jesus our Brother & Lord, and the Holy Spirit our Sanctifier. Make sure that Our God knows we Love Him above all things! That we need Him and His grace in our lives! That we are trying to live out His commandments!
It ends with a fabulous prayer (below) that you may want to consider praying everyday!
Let us pray:
Help us, Lord. Save us and have mercy on us, and draw us back from the brink. We acknowledge our sins Lord and that all of us have fallen short of the glory and holiness to which you have summoned us. But now, on the edge of a precipice, we pray for a miracle — indeed, Lord, one that will stun the world. Guide the Holy Father, who now writes an apostolic exhortation, and may his thoughts be directed only to you and the precious faith you have revealed. Lord, we are poor and needy — whom do we have but you, O Lord? To whom else can we turn? In these times of deep confusion and division we ask a miracle, Lord — yes, a miracle.
Mother Mary, intercede for us. Amen.
