the kids and i composed a mini-prayer that is easy to remember. we say it between mysteries. if you would like to join us- here's how it goes...
Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of jedidiah joseph. please heal him mind and body. thy will be done.
We said it tonight! I started to teach it to our kids. May God's Will be Done and may He gives us all the strength to endure it. Luv ya!
ReplyDeleteI like knowing what specific prayer you would like for your baby. Now I know the words.
ReplyDeleteWe hold to our faith that God can heal him. It is the 'Thy will be done' part that is hardest. God's wisdom so surpasses ours, and He knows the best outcome for all involved. (((HUGS)))
ReplyDeleteWe are adding this prayer to our 'Pater's. But we also pray: "Lord, please give the Arendales the grace to do their best following Your will."
ReplyDeletemaryann, i had to add the "thy will be done". i liked father jack's recent sunday homily when he talked about God answering prayer. he said that often people come to him and complain that God doesn't answer prayer. and he said, "yes he does. he said 'no' or 'wait'."
