Lord, Hear Our Prayers

Pray to do the Father's Perfect Loving will always and never turn my heart away, and to lead others to Him. I also pray for the restoration of my family and friends with Him, as well as for the world. May my dearly departed family and all those in need receive the Divine Mercy and Grace of God. I pray that everyone's heart gets softened and never hardened again, and that all return to prayer and communion. May all unbelief be defeated and replaced with strengthened belief, and may none of us forget what God is doing in our lives. I pray to discern my vocation specifically and the devotion to Divine Mercy/Sacred Heart spreads greatly. Thanks be to God, I pray that more people are grateful to God and pray to him unceasingly, especially with thanksgiving and supplication.

For the Lord's mercy in the lives of Maria S. and Maria De N., that, through the intercession of the Holy Spirit, all their actions may be in the hands of the Lord. May the hand of the Lord be upon them. May my daughters and my son be blessed, may our health be deeply blessed, my job and my finances, and my brothers and sisters in the church I belong to; may we be guided by the Holy Spirit. I pray for all this in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.

My name is Lucia, and I am writing to humbly request your prayer support during a time of uncertainty regarding my academic future. Currently, I feel a great demotivation toward studying the piano, and at the same time, I struggle significantly with learning the languages that I wish to improve. The biggest difficulty is performance anxiety, which blocks me during exams and public performances, preventing me from giving my best. I humbly ask for prayers to clearly discern the path of study that God desires for me; to have the serenity to overcome anxiety and the fear of judgment; and to persevere in my studies and overcome learning difficulties. Thank you deeply for your spiritual support.

I humbly ask for prayers for my father, Martin, who will be undergoing treatment for lung cancer. May the Lord, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary and all the saints, grant him strength, healing, and if it be his will, the miracle of complete cure. We entrust his life and health into God’s merciful hands.
