Kathy it’s been so long since I have thought of you for an extended time, and since this morning you are in my prayers, I find you also in my heart and my mind.
It’s hard for me to believe you have been gone so much longer than you were alive. I will never forget that call from Dad; “we’ve lost Kathy”. Well, now I hope you and Dad and Theresa are watching over all of us and praying for us.
Kathy, I do miss you and wonder how different it all would be if…….. I know God has a reason for everything and I do trust Him.
Father, this morning I again thank you for my family. I thank you for all the laughter and tears, all the fights and hugs, all the love and the “hate”, all of the ups and the downs I would not trade it for the world!
Watch over my family, let your light shine on them and through them, allow them to be beacons in this dark world.
As I bring Kathy to you this morning I also bring her kids and her grandkids and all generations to come. She has left her mark in this world!
Allow Kathy to be in your presence, to fall at your feet and worship, to feel your loving embrace! It’s truly not eternal rest I seek for her, but instead an eternity of dancing, smiling and praising you with all your angels and saints!
Please help me find true forgiveness in any area that still harbors hurt and blame. I pray for Mike in this hour too, that he can have eternal rest.
I offer my rosary today for Kathy and her intentions, Lord, you know best where these prayers are needed, please make them efficacious.
Mary, our most holy mother, please take these prayers to your Son, ask that He hear and answer them.
Please watch over all who will be traveling – allow safe journeys and successful ventures.
Ignite our souls with the grace of faith and inflame our hearts with your Love!
Saint Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for all who will die today, especially those who have no one to pray for them.
Jesus, Mary & Joseph, I love you! Save souls!
Saint Michael, pray for us!
