Save Your Lost Sheep


                “My dear Lord, what do You ask of me today? How can I show my great love for You today? I see such sadness around me – people dying, people mourning, people lost consciously or subconsciously, people tied in chains of anger and frustration, people tied to heavy burdens of financial responsibility, people living as slaves to masters of the world. They are Your lost sheep, braying in the darkness of the storm. Dear Lord, shine the light of Your love, lovingly but boldly calling out to them. Tell them to bring their burdens, their sorrows, their chains to You. Assure them that You will take their suffering and use it to help them return their souls to the beautiful state they were in at their conceptions. All the burdens and cares we place on ourselves will be transformed into the jewels we give to You. Take these burdens and send us forward on our journey to You.
                “For those poor lost sheep that cannot see or hear through the storm, who may be stuck in a ditch, caught in a tangled bramble – dear Jesus, go to them. Send Your blessed Mother first to the lost sheep so she can console them and prepare their hearts to see You coming for them. Then, gently lift them up in Your arms. Bandage their wounds in Your healing mercy so they can be restored. Carry those who can no longer walk. Carry them back to the safe path where the storm clouds have cleared away and the bright sun of Your eternal Father is shining down in majestic glowing rays, illuminating the path to His Kingdom. Place Your lost sheep in the warmth of Your loving embrace and heal them so You can lead them once again, straight to Your Father.
                “Oh Holy Spirit, breathe the pure breath of God through us all so that we can be purified from the world’s pollution and we can be energized by the Truth. Lord I pray that the sadness of all can truly be turned into dancing. Help me to see a reason to rejoice in every situation I encounter - both good and bad, joyous and sad - so that my life here on earth will mirror Your Kingdom in heaven.”
