Dedicated to my Son named after his Grandfather

Psalm 119:105-112

Your word is a lamp for my steps
and a light for my path
I have sworn and have made up my mind
to obey your decrees

Lord, I am deeply afflicted:
by your word give me life.
Accept, Lord, the homage of my lips
and teach me your decrees.

Though, I carry my life in my hands,
I remember your law
Though the wicked try to ensnare me
I do not stray from your precepts.

Your will is my heritage for ever,
the joy of my heart.
I set myself to carry out your will
in fullness, for ever.

Still Decluttering

Two more items found that I want to share:

Sometime ago, more than ten years, I received in the mail a card with the title "Hail Mary Miracle"from the "One Hail Mary A Day Club"...it was started by someone in Norwich, Vermont [no name] who thought it would be a good idea to start a club. Members would say one Hail Mary a day for their club members. If you wish to join, just tell the Blessed Mother you wish to belong to her Club. That's all. No obligation under pain of sin is involved. Mary, is the President. It is hoped that all members will get to know one another in heaven.

PLEDGE: I promise, as a member of the HAIL MARY FAMILY to say a HAIL MARY each day for the mental, physical and spiritual welfare of its members.

PRAYER FOR A LOVED ONE'S RETURN TO THE FAITH
Dear Lord, You became man, suffered and died to win salvation for all souls.
Look graciously on the soul of my loved one who has drifted away from you and the faith.
Grant [name] your grace to see the error of his/her ways and return to the fold in your care.
Teach me to stay close to [name] during this trying time and strive to convert him/her by
action and prayers more than by words that may antagonize.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust you to do everything to bring my loved one back to you..
Amen

A POWERHOUSE OF PRAYER

AN INDIAN PRAYER

While cleaning out and around my desk, I came across this Prayer.
When I was still working in the city this was pinned to my cubicle wall right by my computer. I thought it is more than worth sharing with anyone who may read my blog. This is dedicated to my Mother's family who were part American Indian from the Mohawk Tribe who lived mostly in northern New York State and Canada.

O'Great Spirit,
Whose voice I hear in the winds
And whose breath gives life to all the world
hear me! I am small and weak, I need your
strength and wisdom
Let Me Walk in Beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset
Make my Hands respect the things you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice.
Make Me Wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people
Let Me Learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock.
I Seek Strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy-myself
Make Me Always Ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes.
So When Life Fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame.
