    Hi all. Please keep me in prayer…. Multiple family issues are crashing at same time and I’m being called upon to solve , manage, and guide. I’m tired. I also know I’m wholly inadequate to do this and it’s in Gods Hands. I need to listen to Him, trust in Him and be given the grace and wisdom to discern how to act. And when I feel like giving up which I do at this moment to be held up by prayer … to be given grace to persevere in these stormy days. Thank you.

    My little 9 year old and I just said a decade of the Rosary and a Chaplet of Mercy for your situation and prayed to St. Benedict also. Grandson asked that your stress be relieved. So sincere .

    Sounds terribly familiar. Rest assured, I will pray hard for you, Miker. I went through a rough couple of months from the end of April. It seemed like with every breath I took, I was desperately praying, Jesus, I trust in You.

    Then one day, things got worse and it felt like I was falling and with no hold on anything. Suddenly, I remembered the old story about how people who sent their Guardian angels to St Pio had their prayers answered. Sensing that my suffering this time was not to be prayed away but rather to be endured, I sent my angel to St Pio to ask for the prayer just to be able to hold on.

    The answer was immediate. I sensed "a movement" over The Divine Mercy prayer I had been praying, and the prayer was changed to
    Jesus, I will trust in You.

    It was just a wisp of a change - and yet, it made all the difference to me, and I found the strength and will to endure.

    May a miracle come your way, Miker.

    Prayers again today. Took 2 grandchildren to Adoration for about 6 minutes and myself and we offered for your situation and put your family on the altar. May Jesus help all heal.

    I read this story to my 2 little grandsons 8 and 11 and then took then to adoration for a short visit. Trying to impress the True Presence.
    If anyone wants to read it just google Eucharistic Miracle in Cowley Alberta. Father Gino. Scroll down and the amazing story is there. They listened so intently . I hope this will help them believe! That Miracle happened quite a while ago.

    They go to public school and they and older brother are getting all the woke stuff.
    New baby and all. They go to Mass on Sunday and receive the sacraments etc but need so much more. I’m just supplementing a bit. Please keep us in prayer.
