Oh Mary, on this, the feastday of your birth I ask, I implore, that you intercede for mothers who have lost their sons to worldly tragedies like greed and pride. Ask your Son, Jesus, to heal these relationships and if that’s not possible to give these mothers the faith and strength to face each new day and each new challenge. You, Mary, above all, know the pain of losing your son.
I also request the intercession of your mother, Saint Anne, for those who cannot see and be with grandchildren because of rifts. The bond of a grandmother with her grandbabies is one that cannot be compared to another. They need each other. Please Saint Anne, ask your Grandson, Jesus, that if it is not possible to mend the parent child relationship, to please make a way for the grandparents to see and be with their grandbabies.
I pray for all families this morning and beg that we wake up to what is truly important.
Oh Jesus, give us souls on fire with your faith and hearts inflamed with your love! What a birthday present that would be for your mother!
Happy birthday Mary! Thank you for being my mother and thank you for your prayers and intercession.
Just a Fat Sassy Grandma
