I have that book. Also, Auxilium Christianorum Devotion prayers are inside it. And prayers in the last part to break ties with the Masons. Once a woman came frantically to my church as we were leaving with the door locked behind us. She wanted holy water which, luckily, The woman who was with me had in her car. It was Epiphany water. Good thing, too. Because this woman had a great need. She was granddaughter of some high level Masons, of which her father had rejected/pronounced, and now she was suffering all kinds of demonic attack. I took her back into church through the rectory and we prayed the rosary. Then I told her about the aforementioned book. She was so eager that she wanted to order it right there in an e-book online. (I had told her about the last section.) I don’t know what became of her. She never returned. ETA-*renounced*
Gods permissive will may be here....He may use your suffering and remedies to offer and give hope to others here . Don’t ever give up hope Heidi.....you may feel now like this is permanent, but that’s not necessarily so. A very good friend went to the AMEN clinic. Google it. She had a concussion and they treat all kinds of head conditions, depression,anxiety, etc. They are one of the best clinics in the world. Check them out on Ted talks. Expensive, but what is the price of your mental health? Priceless
Beloved sister, please pray o St Dympna, the patron saint for mental illness, and beg her intercession
I’m afraid it has the opposite effe yes, I offer everything up for my atheist and spiritual but not religious family members
I bring all Forum members to the on line Mass every day, please God your need is waiting in the queue before the Lord. I was just thinking you need to be cheered up and wanted to post a funny song. Having read Beth's post the decision was made.
Dear Heidi, I’ve had some very difficult years lately myself. Very low moments. I knew that they were not in my control except that I had the ability and chose to offer them up for my family who left faith completely. I’ve no doubt that God will honor my request regardless if I live long enough witness it. I also offered it up for the soul that was the cause of these sufferings....because I have faith that God allowed it to possibly bring this soul....and family members back to Him before they pass. I did ask God to only allow as much suffering as I was able to absorb. There were times when I felt I was at that point of enough, and through His mercy, He did not continue it. I have another bridge to cross coming....and I’m aware of what it is. I also know that God has allowed this as well and I’ll be giving it to Him to do as He wills...Not my will, but His will be done.( praying that He will not give me more than I can endure in His mercy). I submit to His will because I know that His will for me is perfect, that suffering is efficacious, He loves me and those I’m offering it for...including myself, need it to get to heaven. Trust me, I hate every minute of it and I told God that I’m a poor sufferer...not to give me more than I can handel). Hopefully I will attain heaven and so will we all. Every second of that suffering we will rejoice in if we do. (But not rejoicing in it quite yet). I hope that sharing this helps you and others here that are carry a heavy cross . The cross is our bridge to heaven God willing. Please do not despair....God has a plan for each of us....just trust Him++++
Julia,this was so funny because I had a great grandmother who actually chased the chickens down like that! Had to get dinner on the table some how! They ran around post beheading just as the saying goes...” Like chickens running around with their heads off,” Yikes!
I use this hilarious video to make people laugh at themselves when they are in the habit of using the F bomb frequently in conversation. It never fails, thought it might be a bit too risky to post on the form. But it is one of my favourites. Now I know why my mother used to say the chickens say cluck cluck to make sure none of us kids got the sound we hear in this song. LOL
