Peace be with you. God has blessed us in so many ways and it's often easy to forget his

blessings and it's often easy to focus only on the painful things in life. Today

though let's thank God for all his blessings in our lives.

Here are the prayers for today. Day 9. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Dear St. Monica, you were once the mournful mother of a prodigal son. Your faithfulness to prayer brought

you and your son so close to God that you are now with Him in eternity. By your

intercession in God's grace, your son, St. Augustine, became a great and

venerable saint of the Church. Please take my request to God with the same fervor and

persistence with which you prayed for your own son.

Imagine your intentions here.

With your needs, worries, and anxieties, you threw yourself on the mercy and providence of God. Through sorrow and pain, you constantly devoted yourself to God.

Pray for me that I might join you in such a deep faith in God's goodness and mercy.

Above all, dear St. Monica, pray for me that I may, like your son, turn for my sin and become

a great saint for the glory of God.

Amen.

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

All right, thanks for praying with us.

We're praying for you and your intentions.
