THE UNIVERSAL PRAYER (attributed to Pope Clement XI)

Lord, I believe in you: increase my faith.
I trust in you: strengthen my trust.
I love you: let me love you more and more.
I am sorry for my sins: deepen my sorrow.

I worship you as my first beginning,
I long for you as my last end,
I praise you as my constant helper,
And call on you as my loving protector.

Guide me by your wisdom,
Correct me with your justice,
Comfort me with your mercy,
Protect me with your power.

I offer you, Lord, my thoughts: to be fixed on you;
My words: to have you for their theme;
My actions: to reflect my love for you;
My sufferings: to be endured for your greater glory.

I want to do what you ask of me:
In the way you ask,
For as long as you ask,
Because you ask it.

Lord, enlighten my understanding,
Strengthen my will,
Purify my heart,
and make me holy.

Help me to repent of my past sins
And to resist temptation in the future.
Help me to rise above my human weaknesses
And to grow stronger as a Christian.

Let me love you, my Lord and my God,
And see myself as I really am:
A pilgrim in this world,
A Christian called to respect and love
All whose lives I touch,
Those under my authority,
My friends and my enemies.

Help me to conquer anger with gentleness,
Greed by generosity,
Apathy by fervor.
Help me to forget myself
And reach out toward others.

Make me prudent in planning,
Courageous in taking risks.
Make me patient in suffering, unassuming in prosperity.

Keep me, Lord, attentive at prayer,
Temperate in food and drink,
Diligent in my work,
Firm in my good intentions.

Let my conscience be clear,
My conduct without fault,
My speech blameless,
My life well-ordered.
Put me on guard against my human weaknesses.
Let me cherish your love for me,
Keep your law,
And come at last to your salvation.

Teach me to realize that this world is passing,
That my true future is the happiness of heaven,
That life on earth is short,
And the life to come eternal.

Help me to prepare for death
With a proper fear of judgment,
But a greater trust in your goodness.
Lead me safely through death
To the endless joy of heaven.

Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Mary Immaculate, you have given
yourself to us as our Lady of the Miraculous Medal.You have asked us to pray
with confidence,and we will receive
great graces. We know your compassion,
because you saw your Son suffer and die
for us. In your union with His suffering you
became the mother of us all.

Mary, my mother, teach me to understand
my suffering as you do and to endure
it in union with the suffering of Jesus. In
your motherly love, calm my fears and
increase my trust in God's loving care.

According to God's plan, obtain for me
the healing I need. Intercede with your Son
that I may have the strenght I need to work
for God's glory and the salvation of the
world.
Amen
Mary,health of the sick,pray for us.
May God grant us healing and all the graces
we need through the intercession of our Lady
of the Miraculous Medal.

Circle me, O God, let Your arms enfold me.
Circle me, O God, let Your love surround.
Circle me, O God, let Your light shine brightly.
Circle me,circle me, O God.

Circle me, O God, when I’m weak and weary.
Circle me, O God, when despair is near.
Circle me, O God, let Your peace surround me.
Circle me,circle me, O God.

Circle me, O God, when I’m tired and restless.
Circle me, O God, be my hope, my strength.
Circle me, O God, let Your presence guide me.
Circle me,circle me, O God.

I bind to myself today:
God’s power to guide me,
God’s might to uphold me,
God’s wisdom to teach me,
God’s eye to watch over me,
God’s ear to hear me,
God’s word to give me speech,
God’s hand to guide me,
God’s way to lie before me,
God’s shield to shelter me,

Not sure if this is the correct forum but, my family is in desperate need of prayers.  My mom is dying in hospice care and dad, sis, brother, and I need strength to allow mom to die in peace.  Friends were up all night praying the rosary for mom and today she lies in a hospice bed totally sedated.  I just called Dad and he is sitting in the car crying like a little child.  Please, Please all pray for us.  

thank you.
