PRAYER FOR HEALING

Lord, you created me. My body is sick now and perhaps my soul too. Please heal me, renew me. Repair the body you had made. Refresh the soul you created for eternal existence. You alone know how to restore my health, for you created me. Make me whole again so that I may live my life for you. Amen. In God’s Tomorrow there is Eternal Spring All nature heeds the call of Spring As God awakens everything, And all that seemed so dead and still Experiences a sudden thrill As Springtime lays a magic hand Across God’s vast and fertile land. Oh, the joy in standing by to watch a sapphire springtime sky or see a fragile flower break through what just a day ago or two seemed barren ground still hard with frost, For in God’s world, no life is lost, and flowers sleep beneath the ground, But when they hear spring’s waking sound, they push themselves through layers of clay to reach the sunlight of God’s day. And man and woman, like flowers, too, must sleep until called from the darkened deep to live in that place where angels sing And where there is eternal Spring.

Prayer for Spiritual Communion

My Jesus I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I Love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my Soul.

Since I cannot, at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as if you were already there and unity myself wholly to You.

Never permit me to be separated from you.

Amen.
