One Last Prayer

Happy Feast of St. Jude! Thank you for joining us in praying through his intercession for impossible causes!   Here at Pray More Novenas, at the end of every novena, we always pray the following as our final prayer.

Let us pray... Dear Lord Jesus, I have specific requests that may only partially fill the infinite needs and desires that are in my heart. I ask that You answer me not only for those requests but also for a greater reliance on You to satisfy the needs and desires that You have given me. Please grant the prayers of all those who prayed this novena with me. Bless them with Your love and make them holy! May I seek You with a sincere heart knowing that it will profit me nothing if I gain the whole world yet lose my soul. So, help me to see Your good and gracious purpose in all my trials. Help me to see Your blessings in every day and help me to love You more. Thank You for everything, Lord Jesus! Amen.

Today's Inspiration from  Catholic Our Prayer Center 10/09/2014

God sees every one of us; He creates every soul for a purpose. He needs, He deigns to need, every one of us. He has an end for each of us; we are all equal in His sight, and we are placed in our different ranks and stations, not to get what we can out of them for ourselves, but to labor in them for Him. As Christ has His work, we too have ours; as He rejoiced to do His work, we must rejoice in ours also. - Blessed John Henry Newman (1801-1890), Cardinal, Feast day October 9 Blessed John Henry Newman, Feast day October 9
