Today, we pray for greater honour to be given to Your name

Lord Jesus, today we consecrate ourselves and our own – to Your Sacred Heart and claim the protection of Your Precious Blood and Your Holy Name. May Your Holy Name always be given the honour it is due and more. Lord, the world seems to respect Your creations but not You, our awesome Creator. We ask Your forgiveness for the times we have spoken Your Name in vain. Let heaven and earth acknowledge its awesome power and protection at all times. When we utter it, let it be with deep love and veneration. Amen.

Today, we pray for our best friends

Lord Jesus, today we thank You for the angels we call our best friends. Bless, sanctify, heal and strengthen our friendships. We praise You and glorify You for their love and support – the friend in school, the one who shared secrets in college, the colleague who always lend an ear and the stranger who became the most integral part of our lives. May they never see distress, but always be Your witnesses of love, peace and joy. Bless my best friend, Lord. Send St. Michael and our guardian angels to stand guard over us and our own.

Today, we pray for those who want to give up

Lord Jesus, we bring to You those who have really reached the end of their tether. We pray for those of us who want to give up on our faith, church-going, family life, relationships, work, friendships, ministry and any other task entrusted to us.

When we face harsh judgement, loneliness, illness and rejection, let us know that its not from You, but from the evil one, who can even...

Today, we pray over our losses

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You everything that we count as loss in our lives today. Lord, we chose to forgive ourselves and the ones who destroyed our visions. The missing best friend, the failed interview, the broken home, the lost relationship, the thwarted plans, the insulted friendship, the shattered dreams, the destroyed ministry and many more. Lord, when You breathe life into our losses, they become precious gains once again. Help us to experience that and more importantly, recognise and thank You sincerely for that. May no child of Yours despair today over anything that he or she...

Today, we pray for the sick and alone

Lord Jesus, today we surrender to You, Your children who are suffering and in pain. Heal their emotional and physical wounds, Lord. When they cry out, may Your angels rush to their aid and soothe their brows. Give them the assurance that You are carrying them in Your precious arms, even when no body else does. When tears flow, give them Your strength, love and grace. Send them Godly cares to love them and nurture them. May no child of Yours go to bed feeling despair or suffering tonight. Amen.
