My friends,

would you pray for me? I am not reluctant to bear the suffering of my illness, because in that I can be united to the suffering of our Savior. But I get fearful, and sometimes, the symptoms make it hard for me to function, and I feel so disappointed when I can't do the things I need to do in my day. I'm going to a new doctor, and he changed my medicines, and at first I was doing better, but i am having a bad day today, and feeling a lot of congestion and difficulty breathing. So now I am getting fearful. Mainly I pray for peace of mind and heart and relief from fear and the strength to do the things others count on me to do.

Thank you for your prayers,
Pook

Dearest 'Pook',

My prayers for your breathing problems and the frustrations that come with not having the energy and health you need to deal with the many daily obligations of life. Just take it easy, and don't demand too much of yourself, or be too hard on yourself. This is the way God made you, and God does NOT make mistakes... Not everyone is blessed with abundant energy and excellent health.

May our Lord, through the intercessions of His Most Holy Mother, and all the Saints, grant you physical health to complete the tasks of life, and may He grant you well being in every other way as well.

Your sister in Christ,
Alice

Pook,

Here I pray for your health and soul.

May God remove all your discomforts and inner fears, bring gentle peace in your soul and mind, and make you healthy.
You are not alone, Pook. With you always is God. Do not be rough with yourself in the daily life, but put with long-patience all your worries in the hands of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Your brother in Christ, Marian
