Only in God
Daily Prayer Blog
Mary, Our Blessed Mother told us to renew devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, the importance of saying the Rosary every day. This column therefore will contain Adoration, the Rosary, the Holy Word of God and prayer. This in all humility but with the grace of God in this Prayer Blog we will seek to do.

The Holy Rosary
Our Blessed Mother explained to us what would happen in the World and in the Church if people continued to turn from God. Sadly we can now see this all around us in the Church and in the World. One of the things she asked us to do was to say the Rosary everyday. Please find a few minutes today to fulfil her request.
The Importance of Prayer
The times we are living through have been foretold both by Our Blessed Mother and in the Holy Word of God. For the second time this writer has decided to stop commenting on the issues of the day and concentrate on prayer. The situation has gone past anything I can do to change it and there is always the danger of scandal.
This column will concentrate on prayer including the Holy Rosary and the Divine Mercy given the fact that we place our faith on God and His Son Jesus Christ and as He requested trust Him and hand our problems, our troubles, over to Him.
Join us in our journey.
Divine Mercy
"Your purpose and that of your companions
is to unite yourselves with Me
as closely as possible;
through love
you will reconcile earth with heaven,
you will soften the just anger of God,
and you will plead for mercy for the world."
Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska:
Divine Mercy in My Soul
The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy
“The souls that say this chaplet will be embraced by My mercy during their lifetime and especially at the hour of their death.”
(Diary, 754)
For the Sake of His Sorrowful Passion
have mercy on us and on the whole world
Prayer to St Michael
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in our hour of conflict. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.
Each day I pray that the Lord will bless us and keep us.
May He show His face to us and have mercy.
May He turn His countenance to us and give us peace.
The Lord bless us!
Amen.

Evening Prayer
The Prayer for Daily Neglects
A Poor Clare nun who had just died, appeared to her Abbess, who was praying for her, and said to her, "I went straight to Heaven, for, by means of this prayer, recited every evening, I paid all my debts." It is known as 'the Prayer for Daily Neglects' and invites us to offer to God the Father the Heart of his Divine Son as we read below in reparation of our sins.
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Sacred Heart of Jesus, with all its love, all its sufferings and all its merits:
To expiate all the sins I have committed this day and during all my life.
Glory be ....
To purify the good I have done badly this day and during all my life.
Glory be......
To supply for the good I ought to have done, and that I have neglected this day and during all my life.
Glory be .....
Only in God is my soul at rest.
In Him comes my salvation.
We finish as we begun
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
