Prayer to St. Jude

Prayer to St. Jude

Most holy apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of his enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many, but the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless causes, of things almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly add your own request here and that I may praise God with you and all the elect forever. I promise, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you.

Amen.

Holy Are Your Ways...

Holy Are Your Ways

Help me to understand, Lord, that what counts is not the road traveled, but simply putting my hand in yours and journeying side by side with you, Lord Jesus -- 0 you who are the joy of my journey and also the repose in the Father's home! Holy, holy is the Lord, for eternal is his love.

Lord help me.....

Lord help me to remember that nothing is going to happen to me today that You and I together can't handle.
Amen.
