Holy Thursday Post

April 17, 2014

Holy Mary, I beg of you to assist me

in avoiding the act of adding

to the wounds of your Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Guide my hands to do God’s work.

Direct my thoughts to bring glory

to God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Help me to see Christ in the faces of whomever I meet,

whether at my own door, at church,

or in the check-out lines or in traffic.

Keep my mind ever aware of the gifts

for which God has provided me

and to give thanks at all times.

Help me to enter into this Triduum-

Mass of the Last Supper,

Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion

and Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord-

with sincerity and deep love in my heart,

true piety and faithful attention

to all that occurs at your Son’s altar.

I ask all of this by your intercession

to Your Son, Christ our Lord.

Amen.

I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
