Day 11
I was looking for some comfort words and prayers yesterday when I stumble upon the novena of St Jude. I haven't seen this prayer for a while, and I was sure this was not a coincidence. God is leading me onto something.
I decided to recite the 9 days St. Jude novena starting today with a special intention. My intention is to be reconcile with him. Weak and desperate I prayed,
Oh Holy St Jude, Apostle, Martyr, great in virtue and rich in miracles,
near kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful intercessor of all who invoke your
special patronage in time of need to you, I have recourse from the depth
of my heart and humbly beg to whom God has given such great power
to come to my assistance. Help me in my present and urgent petition
(petition)
In return I promise to make your name known and cause you to be invoked.
St. Jude pray for us and all who invoke your aid. Amen
Soon as I prayed to St. Jude prayers and the Divine Mercy chaplet, I felt a sense of calmness and peaceful in myself. It's not much about the petition but more to finding and receiving the peaceful in me that I lost. I felt my faith renewed.
How powerful prayers and faith can be. Upon learning the prayers, I came across to a lot of people with desperate situation asking for help in prayers. How little do I feel, with me and my problems. But also very warming to know how many of their prayers are answered through this novena. Some goes as it is, others goes a different way, all on God's will.
I feel more calm today. I feel the peace that I have been looking for. And my faith strengthen.
I feel good. No tears today. No anxiety. No pain. Only calmness. Thank you my Jesus.
First day of St Jude Novena - It already gave me peace.
I hope this prayer will help anyone else too. St. Jude is the helper for the desperation and hopelessness. Ask for his intercession and you will not be failed.
