Breathe, Pray & Hope

Mamma Mary, please pray for me.
 I struggle and I fall so very often. You are my gentle, mighty protectress. Mystical Rose, Queen of Peace and Our Lady of Perpetual Help, please pray for me and for all your dearly beloved children.

Child Jesus, asleep in the manger, please have mercy on me. 
You came down to the midst of poverty -- no possessions, nothing extra, You came so simply. Please work in my heart so that I too may live a life of simplicity where my only goal, my only concern, is to love well and do the Father's will. Have mercy on me, sweet Child.

Silent St. Joseph, please pray for me. 
Help me to live with no concern for my own glory. Pray that I may selflessly serve my Lord as you did. Strong St. Joseph, please pray for me that I may trust God with my whole being and surrender, abandoning myself to love.

All holy men and women, 
please pray for the conversion of souls and a great increase in purity.

Breathe in, breathe out. 
Try your hardest.
God is in command.
