For families

Father, thank you for being here present for me to adore. I know that Jesus is truly here, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Holy Eucharist. I also know that where Jesus is present, so too are you and the Holy Spirit for I believe you are One God.

I bring my heart heavy for families torn apart by the lusts of this world. It can only come from one, and that is the devil, whose goal it is to trample all that is good, and family is at the top of that list. If he can succeed in tearing families apart, he will succeed in tearing society down, bit by bit, making us believe it’s all for the best.

Lord, please hear my prayers, not only for my own family but also for another family that I hold in my heart and You know their names. I ask that you send their Guardian Angels to nudge them and whisper to them to do what is right and good.

I ask that You dispel any and all greed or pride that is standing in the way of healing. Please give them the wisdom to know what is most important in this world, and it has nothing to do with material goods.

I pray for the relationship for grandparents and grandchildren as it is a bond that cannot be replaced. They need each other!

Father, please surround those families in crisis with Your Love. Send Your Holy Spirit to shower them with gifts of strength, compassion, wisdom, fortitude, forgiveness, humility and peace.

Dispel all darkness from their lives and let them feel the warmth and comfort that comes from walking in Your Light!

All of this I beg of You, through Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ and with the Holy Spirit, for you are One God, who lives and reigns forever and ever. Amen.
