INTERCESSIONS

Through his cross the Lord Jesus brought salvation to the human race. We adore him and in faith we call out to him:
Lord, pour out your mercy upon us.

Christ, Rising Sun, warm us with your rays,
— and restrain us from every evil impulse.
Lord, pour out your mercy upon us.

Keep guard over our thoughts, words and actions,
— and make us pleasing in your sight this day.
Lord, pour out your mercy upon us.

Turn your gaze from our sinfulness,
— and cleanse us from our iniquities.
Lord, pour out your mercy upon us.

Through your cross and resurrection,
— fill us with the consolation of the Spirit.
Lord, pour out your mercy upon us.

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Concluding Prayer

God our Father,
you conquer the darkness of ignorance
by the light of your Word.
Strengthen within our hearts
the faith you have given us;
let not temptation ever quench the fire
that your love has kindled within us.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
— Amen.

DISMISSAL

May the Lord bless us,
protect us from all evil and bring us to everlasting life.
— Amen.

If we all believed what Job believed 3000+ years ago - we’d skip all the complaining conducted in the last 3000 years…

When you realize that people have figured out things that were still wrestling with 1800+ or so years later

READING Job 1:21; 2:10b

Naked I came forth from my mother’s womb,
and naked I shall go back again.
The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away;
blessed be the name of the Lord!
We accept good things from God;
and should we not accept evil?

The book of Isaiah is Bravissimo 🧑‍🍳

Talk before telling Jesus Christ and his expression of God’s love.

Isaiah 1-3
Isaiah 7:14
Isaiah 22
Isaiah 38,39 and 40!
Isaiah 41, 42

It’s Christ, foretold.

Prayer Video – Daily Consecration to Jesus, Mary and Joseph https://youtu.be/RzL1yH3oZoU

Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O Adorable Heart of Jesus, the tenderest, the most amiable, the most generous of all hearts! Penetrated with gratitude at the sight of Thy benefits, I come to consecrate myself wholly and unreservedly to Thee! I wish to devote all my energies to propagating Thy worship and winning, if possible, all hearts to Thee.

Receive my heart this day, O Jesus. Or rather take it, change it, purify it, to render it worthy of Thee; make it humble, gentle, patient, faithful, and generous like Thine, by inflaming it with the fire of Thy love. Hide it in Thy Divine Heart with all hearts that love Thee and are consecrated to Thee; never permit me to take my heart from Thee again. Let me rather die than grieve Thy Adorable Heart. Thou knowest, O Heart of Jesus, that the desire of my heart is to love Thee always, to be wholly Thine in life and in death, in time and in eternity.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in Thee.

Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
I, a faithless sinner, renew and ratify today in thy hands, O Immaculate Mother, the vows of my Baptism. I renounce Satan, his pomps and works, and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.

In the presence of all the heavenly court, I choose thee this day for my Mother and Mistress. I deliver and consecrate to thee, as thy slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to thee the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to thy good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity. Amen.

Consecration to St. Joseph
O St. Joseph, spouse of Mary, virginal father of Jesus, and my spiritual father, I consecrate myself entirely to you. I lovingly embrace your fatherhood and take refuge under your paternal cloak. Help me to pray and to be virtuous today. Instruct me in the wisdom of the saints, protect me from the snares of the enemy, and keep me from sinning. Should I take my last breath today, be by my side, and take me to Heaven to be with Jesus and Mary. Amen.

Was it necessary for St Joseph to have passed away before Jesus’ ministry? So that Jesus could be the actual Son of David, the Israelite King? Meaning that if Joseph was alive when Jesus’ ministry was being performed, it would been that Joseph was a rightful King and Jesus would have been a prince. Jesus would have had to wait for Joseph to have passed to be a king rather than a prince? Just a thought…

Also, if you look into the account of Judges and Kings in the OT, the Queen Mother was regularly mentioned in the OT lineage of when a King’s son was appointed King (after his father had passed.) the narrative typically provides a comment of who the Queen Mother is - meaning the Queen who’s son ascended to the throne… this woman often interceded for the people of the kingdom and had an influential position. That is an indicator of what the role of Mother Mary plays in the New Kingdom of David’s Son. It’s just interesting that so many reject asking Mother Mary for intercession, but don’t realize the typology in the Okd Testament scriptures for an intecessory Queen Mother in the Old Testament as well.

Practically every generation of a king ascending to power has their mother mentioned, and she served as the Queen mother.

Romero empowers his audience saying, “How beautiful will be the day when all the baptized understand that their work, their job, is a priestly work, that just as I celebrate
Published by JHU Macksey Journal, 2021

Mass at this altar, so each carpenter celebrates Mass at his workbench...is performing a priestly office!” (Romero, 2003, p. 24). He teaches that the pursuit of fulfillment of the Christian Vocation (which is to seek holiness and sanctification) is foundational to the work that accompanies one’s job, “how many cabdrivers, I know, listen to this message there in their cabs; you are a priest at the wheel, my friend, if you work with honesty, consecrating that taxi of yours to God, bearing a message of peace and love to the passengers who ride in your cab” (emphasis added) (Romero, 2003, p. 24).
