Praying for your sister today while walking the dogs and offering up mass tomorrow. Praying to St Joseph. Patron of a Happy Death. After mass this morning I watched as a gentleman prayed for the longest time at St Joseph's Shrine. I thought what a wonderful thing it is to have a Devotion to St Joe.
Prayers at mass for yourself too. This must be such a difficult time. We will all of us be reunited in heaven one day. I am looking forward to meeting so many forum members up there one day.
I have a prayer ritual that I pray each day and praise God,...He has given me the grace to remain faithful to it for many years, His faithfulness is unbounding, do not abandon me Oh Lord. The prayers include the DM chaplet and the Rosary which I pray for all MOG forum members intentions, asking that Our Lady's intentions for each person we are praying for, that they be attained through Her Most Immaculate Heart. I also pary the following prayer each day, and this prayer is powerful before God the Blessed Trinity, because.... God the Father chose and trusted St Joseph to provide fatherly teachings and direction in His stead! God the Holy Spirit chose and trusted St Joseph to protect His Most Beloved Spouse, Mary Most Holy, and God the Son chose [from all men] and trusted St Joseph to mentor Him in the necessities of our human condition! This prayer is over 1900 years old Oh St. Joseph Whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God, I place in you all my interests and desires. Oh St. Joseph do assist me by your powerful intercession and obtain for me from your divine son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, our Lord; So that having engaged here below your heavenly power I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of fathers. Oh St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not approach while he reposes near your heart. Press him in my name and kiss his fine head for me, and ask him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for us. Amen I add the following St Joseph, Friend of the Sacred Heart pray for us. St. Joseph, Chaste spouse of Our Lady pray for us. St. Joseph, Foster father of Jesus pray for us. St. Joseph, Virginal father of Jesus pray for us. St. Joseph, Guardian of the Church pray for us. St. Joseph, Guardian of our treasure pray for us. St. Joseph, The worker pray for us. St. Joseph, Our patron pray for us. St. Joseph, Model of fathers pray for us. St. Joseph, Guardian of our land and business pray for us St. Joseph, King of Angels pray for us Amen.
