Prayer before mass and communion

Prayer Before Mass

Heavenly Father, help me to appreciate that every time I go to mass, I am in the presence of the angels; Also that I am in the presence of our Blessed Mother; Help me to hear your word speaking to me in the readings (and the homily); Above all help me to unite with Jesus in His eternal sacrifice to You, in intersession for the conversion of the world, including the conversion and spiritual development of my own family and loved ones, especially (mention who you would like to pray for here)

Prayer before Communion

Lord Jesus help me to recognise that it really is you, my Lord and my God, that I am receiving. Help me to receive you with great reverence. I receive you today Lord not just for myself but for my family and my loved ones especially (mention who you would like to pray for here) and for those who do not know You or do not love You.

Self Confidence and How it has affected me

I done this blog post a few months ago O ne of the main reasons I have anxiety is because I have low self confidence. My low self confidence is more so in the way of my ability in being able to do future tasks rather than in how I look. Some nights I ask myself questions like how will I cope tomorrow if I don't sleep tonight?, will I be able to do the task I set out for myself tomorrow? therefore telling my self that I am not strong enough in such a situation.

The last few weeks my self-confidence has gotten better and I am taking on more tasks. I feel I have a new found freedom. I used t

Novena to St. Francis Xavier (4th of March to the 12th of March 2020)

Most amiable and most loving St. Francis Xavier, in union with thee I reverently adore the Divine Majesty. The remembrance of the favours with which God blessed thee during life, and of thy glory after death, fills me with joy. I implore thee to obtain for me, through thy powerful intercession, the inestimable blessing of living and dying in the state of grace. I also beseech thee to obtain the special favour I ask of this Novena. (Make your request here...) But, if what I ask is not for the glory of God, and the good of my soul, I pray and desire that which is the most conductive to both. Amen. Pray for us, St. Francis Xavier. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Let Us Pray. O God, Who didst vouchsafe, by the preaching and miracles of Saint Francis Xavier, to join unto Thy Church the nations of the Indies, grant, we beseech Thee, that we who reverence his glorious merits may also imitate his example, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen. Pray three times the Our Fath
