Prayer to Mother Mary
O Virgin Mary,
Mother of God and of Jesus,
Pray for us and for the world to rid our hearts of hatred,
May you bring happiness to the depressed,
May you stand up for the oppressed,
And may you bring us together to celebrate our diversity in unity,
May you always hold us close, and may you make us aware of the messages of mercy, justice and love of your son Jesus Christ.
In Jesus’ name, Amen 🕯

“The divine nature is so kenotic that Mercy is willing to enter and pour through us, not only when we are at our best, but most of all when we are at our worst.”

Unfortunately, brothers and sisters, we are the product of a spiritualized, individualistic education. We were taught: try to save your soul and don't worry about the rest. We told the suffering: be patient, heaven will follow, hang on. No, that's not right, that's not salvation! That's not the salvation Christ brought. The salvation Christ brings is a salvation from every bondage that oppresses human beings.
St. Óscar Romero, The Violence of Love

“If God were the sort of being most Christians suppose him to be, he would be beside himself with boredom listening to their whinings and flatteries, their redundant requests and admonitions, not to mention the asinine poems set to indifferent tunes which are solemnly addressed to him as hymns.”
— Alan Watts

God is our refuge and strength, a help always near in times of great trouble. That’s why we won’t be afraid when the world falls apart, when the mountains crumble into the centre of the sea, when it’s waters roar and rage, when the mountains shake because of its surging waves.
Psalm 46:1-3 CEB
