Prayer just for today

Be anxious about nothing, but in all things, with prayer and supplication, with acts of thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.
And so shall the peace of God, which exceeds all understanding, guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Concerning the rest, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is chaste, whatever is just, whatever is holy, whatever is worthy to be loved, whatever is of good repute, if there is any virtue, if there is any praiseworthy discipline: meditate on these.
All the things that you have learned and accepted and heard and seen in me, do these. And so shall the God of peace be with you.
Philippians 4:6-9

A PRAYER FOR PEACE OF MIND

Fortify me with the grace of Your Holy Spirit
and give Your peace to my soul
that I may be free from all needless anxiety,
solicitude and worry.
Help me to desire always
that which is pleasing and acceptable to You
so that Your will may be my will.
(By Saint Francis Xavier Cabrini)

O Christ Jesus,
when all is darkness
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.

By Saint Ignatius of Loyola

Govern by all Thy Wisdom, O Lord,
so that my soul may always be serving Thee as Thou dost
Will, and not as I may choose.
Do not punish me, I beseech Thee,
by granting that which I wish
or ask if it offended Thy Love,
which would always live in me.
Let me die to myself,
so that I may love Thee.
Let me live to Thee,
Who art in Thyself,
the True Life.

Dear St. Therese,
guide me in your Little Way,
so that I may ascend to the heights and happiness of
Heaven.

Special prayers needed.

I got a call this morning that someone our family knows is dying and desperately needs a miracle. She is a very special mother who just gave birth and has grave complications and needs intense prayer. She is only 27 years old with 4 children one of whom is only 2 weeks old. I prayed for a miracle through the intercession of Archbishop Fulton Sheen. A local priest has asked that we ask PJPII to intercede as well. Saint Gianna, pray for this dear mother, that she may recover in a miraculous way and raise her children with her loving husband. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Ask for intercession from Archbishop Fulton Sheen, a request

I have a special request to ask. A friend of ours gave us wonderful prayer cards that have been made for the cause of canonization of Archbishop Fulton Sheen. The other is for intercession for favors. So HERE is the link for these prayers. Pray first for his cause. Then if you would, pray for a very special and holy priest who has been such a blessing to our family. He has helped my two autistic sons more than he will ever know. He also married my husband and I when no other priest would. He has taught my family so much about true holiness and truth that can only be found in the Catholic Church. Thank you in advance to all who pray for him.
Also, if you can make a freewill offering, they will send you some of these cards. I have them and they are very nice and would be great to give to others, perhaps in their Easter card.
