Lord, Hear Our Prayers

URGENT REQUEST: Going through intense pain, have multiple chronic conditions, mental and physical. I don't know what will happen, I have left the faith many times, offended God and come back. Parents are old and poor, were from another religion, then drawn to Christ and now to Catholicism, but no church in my village. Gone through times when I felt God had abandoned me also.

Prayer for the physical relief, healing, support, and safe voyage of my mother, Carmelita. Heavenly Father, we place Carmelita in your loving care.

Transform her workplace into a sanctuary of loyal allies and supportive colleagues. Bless her with consistent financial means, the aid of modern technology, and graceful mobility despite her age. Protect her voyage onboard the MS Bolette with safety and peace. Amen.

I think I am not saved or not in alignment with God. I want to be truly saved and want to be happy in spiritual life. I have no church in my village; I was baptized in the Protestant church but also believed in other gods at that time. Now, I have learned about Catholicism and the True God. I want God to answer my prayers according to his will. I want to live for his glory. I have left the faith many times because of OCD and my sinful nature. I also have many chronic conditions, mental and physical. I have been very disobedient and have always sinned. Please pray for me. I have felt very depressed for years. God hasn't responded, just a few times with the intercession of saints and Mother Mary and others, but now not.
