"Lord, there are two ways we can do this, yours and mine. Mine is not working. Let's do it your way."

witness - nice prayer Let's do it His way. Once again I pray: For a peaceful, perfect & sinless day, I pray to the Lord. Lord hear my prayer. For a good account of myself before the awesome judgement seat of the Christ, I pray to the Lord. Grant this Oh Lord. For peace in the world, I pray to the Lord. Lord hear my prayer

For some reason I woke up this morning and thought about the first time I looked at Playboy magazines. I was at my cousin's house. He had a collection and offered to show them to me. Over the years I have kind of blamed him for getting me started. But this morning I thought about the truth of the matter. I could have said "NO!" I could have closed my eyes or left the room or . . . . I had options. I chose to look and sadly, I enjoyed looking. After that, every time I indulged it was my choice. No one made me pick up the magazine or search for something on the web.
So today the fact remains. I have choices. When the devil presents me with another temptation, what will be my responce?
Dear Lord, help me live for you today! I am weak but you are strong! Give me eyes and a heart only for you this day! There is always a way of escape. Help me Lord to desire that way out and to say "NO!" to the devil and his lies!

I still find this the most beautifull prayer and it is good for everything
we are talking about God, but lets not forget Mary is the easiest, fastest and most secure way to get to Him
the Magnificat is not really an original prayer, but a very important one we don't want to miss I think
Not to forget that tomorrow is august the 15th : assumption of Mary ( the most important feast of Her )

I just read the "Fisherman's Prayer" and thought it fit in here:
"Protect me O Lord! My boat is so small and your sea is so big."

O Allah, My sustainer Grant me goodness in this world, And goodness in the judgment day, and rescue me from the suffering of the fire.
O Allah I have tortured my own self, And if you don't forgive me and bestow your blessings on me, I will be from the losers (Like loss in business)
My prayer: O Allah I have tried MY best, I have done what I could do, I have done all I could do, and still couldn't get out of the obsceneties. I have relised that it is not in my ability to overcome P. Please Lord get me out of it. I am shameful and I regret please end my shame and regret. I am suffering from it please end my suffering. Please Allah, Help me.

Dear God,
I want so desperately to lead a new life, totally free from this sin. You know me. You know how many times I have failed. I confess that I can't do this alone. I need YOUR help!
Help me lean on YOU today. Be my strength. Be my Helper! Keep me walking on the higher path always looking to YOU and your light.
Amen!

"Lord, teach me . . .to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to seek for rest; to labor and not to ask for reward, except to know that I am doing your will." --Prayer of St. Ignatius of Loyola

Our Father, each day is a little life, each night a tiny death; help us to live with faith and hope and love. Lift our duty above drudgery; let not our strength fail, or the vision fade, in the heat and burden of the day. O God, make us patient and pitiful one with another in the fret and jar of life, remembering that each fights a hard fight and walks a lonely way. Forgive us, Lord, if we hurt our fellow souls; teach us a gentler tone, a sweeter charity of words, and a more healing touch. Sustain us, O God, when we must face sorrow; give us courage for the day and hope for the morrow. Day unto day may we lay hold of thy hand and look up into thy face, whatever befall, until our work is finished and the day is done. Amen.
Francis of Assisi, 1181-1226.

Almighty God, to whom all hearts are open and from whom no secrets are hidden: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you and follow you. Amen.

Lord I have not been in this holy place for quite a while. I remember the joy I felt when I first found this board
A place where I was no longer alone A place where others shared my struggles and my pain
You know well that my struggle continues I trust you Help Me
I love you Lord my strength Help me love you Lord my strength more and more
Amen
