| This page is dedicated to Makoto-chan, my role model for all things Christian. You've taught me so much, Mako, and I thank you the only way I know how. Here are a list of some of my favorite/most used prayers. I hope you all enjoy them and use them as much as I have. |

| Prayer in Time of Loneliness Lord Jesus Christ, I am assailed by a spell of loneliness. It is as if I am totally alone, without anyone in the world. It is a terrifying feeling, Lord; help me to overcome it. Let me realize that I am never really alone if I am united with You -- for You are always with me. At the same time, remind me that I also have need of others, for I am a social being. And there are many people whom You have brought into my life to help me on my way to eternity. Teach me to see that we need one another if we are to make a go of our lives and complete the tasks You have given us. Amen. |
| "Learning Christ" Teach me, my Lord, to be sweet and gentle In all the events of life -- in disappointments, in the thoughtlessness of others, in the insincerity of those I trusted, in the unfaithfulness of those on whom I relied. Let me put myself aside, to think of the happiness of others, to hide my little pains and heartaches, so that I may be the only one to suffer from them. Teach me to profit by the suffering that comes across my path. Let me so use it that it may mellow me, not harden nor embitter me; that it may make me patient, not irritable. that it may make me broad in my forgiveness, not narrow, haughty and overbearing. May no one be less good for having come within my influence. No one less pure, less true, less kind, less noble for having been a fellow-traveler in our journey toward ETERNAL LIFE. As I go my rounds from one distraction to another, let me whisper from time to time, a word of love to Thee. May my life be lived in the super-natural, full of power for good, and strong in its purpose of sanctity. Amen. |
| Prayer to the Holy Spirit: O, Holy Spirit, beloved of my soul,...I adore You. Enlighen me, guide me, strengthen me, console me. Tell me what I should do...give me Your orders. I promise to submit myself to all that You desire of me and to accept all that You permit to happen to me. Let me only know Your will. Amen. |
| Prayer to Our Lady of Lourdes: Merciful God, come to the aid of our frailty. May we who keep the memory of the immaculate Mother of God, rise from our iniquities with the help of her intercession. Amen. |
| Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel: Saint Michael the Archangel, Defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, By the power of God, thust into hell Satan and all evil spirits Who wander through the world For the ruin of souls. Amen. |
