Please pray that Jesus will save the soul of my father, Jose, who recently passed away last night. Please offer your rosaries, Divine Mercy chaplets, and penances for him and all the souls departed, aborted, unborn, and in purgatory. May God's perpetual light shine upon him, and may God grant him peace and eternal rest now. Pray for my mom, Susana, who is now 85 and a widow. Pray for my mom that she goes to mass every week when able, and receives the sacraments often, and that she stays close to God now that my dad is no longer with her/us. Pray for my family who is grieving now, and missing him dearly.

Thank you to everyone who are here and is praying for me. I’m sorry if my prayers are full of complaints and things that I want to happen. I pray that my prayers are not selfish and wrong. I know that whatever God’s will is I have to accept it in my life no matter how hard and painful it is. Please forgive me Lord. I am so weak. Please do not allow negative thoughts to live in my head and heart. Stay with me Lord when I am scared. Please do not allow me to doubt all the goodness you have done and to doubt all the miracles you have done and doubt all the things you want for us is only good. Please help me. Please help pray for me that my mammogram results is normal. This is my first callback and it’s really scaring me. Please make everything ok. I will also have my blood works done.

I pray Father please uplift me. I am at a crossroad and do not know what to do? I have been trying to be strong at work and they keep putting someone on my shifts with me at work, who is more outgoing with males then me. I am a pretty and meek woman, but some men think your mean if your shy. They also prefer going to her, because she is not intimidating. Please uplift me. I dont like working with teenager girls, males my age are nicer to her than me. I feel so unloved and insecure now. They put me on two shifts with her next week. I do not have the strength to work with her. I don't want to lose my job. These men don't realize my fiance of 15 years left me. He kicked me to the curb and he abused me. I am insecure because of him. I pray don’t allow her to take my job from me. Make me strong
