O Sacred Head Surrounded

Divine Mercy

Today is the first post I am making to this blog. To any blog. I hope to use it as a way of recording my progress in my conversion to the Light. It is a daily battle that I am sometimes focused on and sometimes I become overwhelmed with the world and my own sin. I fall often.

This weekend was bad. The sins of the flesh eat at you and leave you wounded. Sometimes you think beyond all help. Then you call for Abba. And you seek his mercy.

For the sake of His Sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Let us Pray.
O God, in Whom there is no change or shadow of alteration,
Thou didst give courage to Thy holy Martyrs
through the unfathomable graces of the immemorial Mass.
Grant unto us. we beg Thee,
through their intercession,
the wider restoration of this sacred rite of Mass,
that we may rejoice in the consolation of its graces
and be strengthened to serve Thee
in imitation of the courage
and fidelity of these holy Martyrs.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Thy Son, Who being God,
liveth and reigneth with Thee
in the unity of the Holy Ghost,
for ever and ever.
Amen.


To the Glory of God and His Holy Church
