Thank you bishop Soc for these deeply inspiring and enlightening words about heaven, purgatory and adoration of God. I do wish to be embraced by the ever loving God, and be free of my fear of being separated from Him again. Amen
Lord Jesus Christ, open the eyes of my heart to recognize your presence with me and to understand the truth of your saving word. Nourish me with your life-giving word and with the bread of life.
That all God's children throughout Creation may know Jesus Christ and become Children of God through the work of His Redemption on the Cross, and in His Church through baptism. Jesus Christ, our Redeemer, you redeemed us all in the hope of saving us. Let us pray that, as we become your brothers and sisters, we will understand that we are, like you, "Children of Mary and St. Joseph. At your school, Child Jesus, we want to offer ourselves, and the world to God the Father, everyday in union with all the Holy Masses said throughout the world. Amen.
Lord God, we thank you for having revealed yourself on this earth in the midst of sin, need, and oppression. We thank you that we can have joy in all you have done both before and since the coming of Jesus Christ, our Savior in everything. To you be praise and thanks. Our hearts leap up with joy in you and in your deeds. Grant that we may be faithful to the end, victorious in all things through your Spirit, who helps and blesses us on our way. Grant your help to all who call to you and who long to rejoice in you. Amen.
