Oración de Sanación InteriorEspíritu Santo, desciende y reclama mi cuerpo, que fue consagrado a Ti en mi bautismo, llenando toda mi cantidad dimensional, desde la cima de mi cabeza hasta la planta de mis pies. Llena mis facultades con Tu presencia: mis sentidos, memoria, imaginación, potencia cogitativa, potencia de sentido común, entendimiento, voluntad y apetitos. Toma posesión de todos los aspectos de mi cuerpo y de mi alma, sin dejar lugar alguno vacío; cierra toda puerta, cueva o portal a los demonios, expulsándolos al pie de la Cruz de Jesucristo, para que nunca regresen. Sáname de mis heridas. En el Nombre del Padre, y del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo. Amén.

A prayer for the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, prayed by Pope John Paul II on his first papal trip, which included a stop in Mexico City, in 1979:O Immaculate Virgin, Mother of the true God and Mother of the Church, who from this place reveal your clemency and your pity to all those who ask for your protection, hear the prayer that we address to you with filial trust, and present it to your Son Jesus, our sole Redeemer. Mother of Mercy, Teacher of hidden and silent sacrifice, to you, who come to meet us sinners, we dedicate on this day all our being and all our love.We also dedicate to you our life, our work, our joys, our infirmities and our sorrows. Grant peace, justice and prosperity to our peoples; for we entrust to your care all that we have and all that we are, our Lady and Mother. We wish to be entirely yours and to walk with you along the way of complete faithfulness to Jesus Christ in His Church; hold us always with your loving hand.Virgin of Guadalupe, Mother of the Americas, we pray to you for all the Bishops, that they may lead the faithful along paths of intense Christian life, of love and humble service of God and souls. Contemplate this immense harvest, and intercede with the Lord that He may instill a hunger for holiness in the whole people of God, and grant abundant vocations of priests and religious, strong in the faith and zealous dispensers of God’s mysteries.Grant to our homes the grace of loving and respecting life in its beginnings, with the same love with which you conceived in your womb the life of the Son of God. Blessed Virgin Mary, protect our families, so that they may always be united, and bless the upbringing of our children.Our hope, look upon us with compassion, teach us to go continually to Jesus and, if we fall, help us to rise again, to return to Him, by means of the confession of our faults and sins in the Sacrament of Penance, which gives peace to the soul.We beg you to grant us a great love for all the holy Sacraments, which are, as it were, the signs that your Son left us on earth. Thus, Most Holy Mother, with the peace of God in our conscience, with our hearts free from evil and hatred, we will be able to bring to all true joy and true peace, which come to us from your son, our Lord Jesus Christ, who with God the Father and the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns for ever and ever.

A Worker's Prayer to Saint JosephGlorious St Joseph! Model of all those who are devoted to labor, obtain for me the grace to work in a spirit of penance for the expiation of my many sins; to work conscientiously, setting devotion to duty above my own inclinations, to work with thankfulness and joy, considering it an honor to employ and develop by work the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, moderation and patience, never shrinking from weariness or trials; to work especially with pure intentions and detachment from self, keeping unceasingly before my eyes death and the account I must give for time lost, talents unused, good omitted and vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work of God. All for Jesus, all through Mary, all in imitation of thee, O Patriarch Joseph; such shall be my motto in life and in death.

Today’s prayer is Actiones nostras, a beautiful traditional prayer asking God to direct and sustain all our actions. According to the Manual of Indulgences (1999), a partial indulgence is granted to the faithful who devoutly recite a legitimately approved prayer of supplication and thanksgiving at the beginning and end of the day, when starting or completing work, or before and after meals.This prayer, found in the Roman Missal and the Liturgy of the Hours, asks the Lord to guide every word and work, so that all we do may begin with His inspiration and be brought to completion by His grace.If this prayer strengthens you today, consider sharing it with someone who may need encouragement. And if you feel moved, a quick rating or review helps others discover these traditional Catholic prayers.Under Mary’s protection, we place all our work.
