Short Prayer Reflections

I am miserable, a prisoner of my soul, loaded with fetters until you comfort me with the light of Your presence and restore me to hope by Your touch of love.

O Mary, my mother, grant that I may always show your virtues in my actions and words. Lay your mantel upon me, so I may live in accordance to your Son's way.

To seek God first, hoping to be always first in His list. Therefore, I seek the Lord with all might, soul and mind for he is the way, the truth and the life.

Now I am starting to believe that all is not lost when anything happens contrary to what you have wanted. In every failure, something good is awaiting, it is for you to discover - with faith in heart. It will be accordingly...

I will speak to my Lord as if I am dust and ashes, a nothing, when the wind blows, I disappears. For HE is my creator and dust will I be according to HIS WILL.

Strive thyself to be good and faithful servant of the Lord, to bravely bear our cross with love, hope and peace for HE died for us because of HIS Love for us, hope for our wickedness and to shower peace into our hearts.

Resolve on something definite, against those things that hinder us from getting closer to our Dear Mother Mary and to examine ourselves, INTERIOR and EXTERIOR, as both are necessary for our advancement in faith.

Loving Mary intimately is learning divine things and speaking in wonders. One learn to abandon material things and be free from attachment in this world, for Mary is enough as our attachment to God.

I acknowledge myself unworthy of divine consolation but worthy of more sufferings to cleanse me from my pride, anger and judgments...so help me Mother Mary.

There are many who, when things do not go the way they want it to be, immediately lose their desire to pray and becomes bitter to God's love. Mary never did...

Grant O God, that I may love You as You deserved to be loved with all my soul, my mind and my heart. Love for all times - all occasions and all circumstances...

We have to remember that we survived because of our faith. Without faith, we wither like plants without water.

The road maybe be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous and ordinary but it leads to the most amazing view...The paradise to heaven.

May all humankind offer blessings to each other, let go of any anger, so we may live peacefully.

Let the heavens be your guide and nature your companion when you are in confusion...for it is God who gave us life and by His grace we make decisions through His whispers in the wind.

Jesus is the only religious leader that is risen from the dead and was born through Mary, The Immaculate Conception. Do we need more proof?

In times of need, remember that each of us has a strength as vast as the ocean and as strong as the wind that is always ready within us, if we only believe that we can because God is in our hearts and He provides.

For a real spiritual exercise this Holy Week, please join your parish celebration of the Easter Triduum which will begin today, Thursday and will end on Saturday's Easter Vigil. Check with your parish the schedule of these three most beautiful liturgies. It's the simple way of reminding ourselves how Jesus sacrificed for us.

The Blessed Virgin Mary = The Godbearer.

May I learn to say YES when God ask me to help the needy.

Learn to say YES when ask to pray for the lost ones who can't find their way.

May I learn to say YES when ask to share my time to those lonely believers.

and learn to say YES, by extending my hands to those who are suffering...

Sweet Mary, teach me to be sweet like you. To be sweet to others and to my self when life turns sour. To be sweet inspite of the bitterness that visits my life some days. To use sweetness as my weapon to help others see the sweetness of you - loving us like your own child, like our brother God Jesus.

And her name is Mary. Simple yet blessed, and with her faith, she said "yes, I am the servant of the Lord, be it done to me according to Thy will" How many of us can say "Yes" with faith in our hearts? A yes that let God take care of us? It is tough bur with God nothing is impossible. Be like Mary, say Yes to God.

Having a bad day? Talk to the Blessed Virgin Mary and you'll be happy! She who is always comforting - with her soft and gentle whispers - and a smile that never fades. Then hug your mother if you have one or hug a mother of a friend if you have none. You will be amazed...

Make the Blessed Virgin Mary the Queen in your family. She who is in heaven before us. The children will love Mary just as their caring mother's daily cooking, cleaning, preparing and working, a way to show the children the beautiful Love of Mary to Jesus and the child Jesus as their example of a good child.

Blessed Virgin Mary, your mantle of love is what keeps me going in love...to others. Show you care for others is something the Blessed Virgin Mary would be smiling upon you and lay the mantle of love to protect you...

Mother Mary, what a lovely mother you are to me. When I am sad, your face is suffice to brighten my day because I see that love in your eyes, your love for me - even in the darkest moment of my thoughts. Those eyes that looked through my soul, connecting with gentleness, wakes me up from the dark to see the light again.

Mary holds Christ in her left hand and with her right hand she "shows the way" by pointing to Him...

A 4 year old girl was told that reciting the rosary is like making a necklace made of roses for a mother dear. She would like to offer a rosary to Mother Mary but she can't read yet. Here is how her rosary go while holding the rosary in her tiny hands:

Our Father

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

Glory Be.

She did it 5 times for the 5 Mysteries and was glad to offer a rosary to Mother Mary in her own little way.

Like the leaves falling everyday, it is Mother Mary's way of giving love through the leaves that come my way. While the tree stood still to give shade, Mother Mary represents that tree, standing still - always there and reminds us of her love.

Let Mother Mary hold your hand like your mother holding your hand when you were younger, walking hand in hand, together, and with love for each other...

For those mothers who are suffering from hardship these days, be it work, family matters and financial difficulty, we pray to the Blessed Virgin Mary that they will have enough faith to offer it to Jesus through Mary, wisdom to decide for the Glory of God, and to just let it happen for a reason only God knows...
