PRAYER: LET US PRAY, DEAR ONES:
Oh Holy Father, we look to Thee alone for stength and rest from the our sad estate. Only through You and with You, do we have hope....The same Hope that allowed Your Son Jesus to persevere under horrid persecution, torture and death. How we look to Thee now, as always, seeking Your Divine Guidance as we strive to tolerate that which is intolerable. Oh how we pray to Thee now, as always, seeking Your Divine Mercy for our days...And yet do we Beseech You for resurrection when our sufferings are over, for the same Resurrection promised and delivered to your Beloved Son Jesus Christ. We know that we are not even worthy in Thy Sight, yet You make us feel special and loved and comforted and cared for. We know that though our fellows will fail us, You never will. Your Awesome Love is always ours-- rebuking, reminding, refreshing and forgiving. When we fully realize that we were bought at the price of Jesus's Death and Resurrection, we must only confess this truth and disengage from all sin as we believe in Your Way. Then You assure us that we are saved, as even we know it in our hearts. Lord God, listen to the concerns and joys in these, our hearts, as we plead for such as these on this Holy Saturday April 3, 2010:
