Do Not Be Afraid

FIRST FRIDAY DEVOTION

“’THE MOUNTAINS MAY SHIFT, AND THE HILLS MAY BE SHAKEN, BUT MY FAITHFUL LOVE WON’T SHIFT FROM YOU, AND MY COVENANT OF PEACE WON’T BE SHAKEN,’ says the LORD, the One Who pities you.”

—Isaiah 54:10

“I PROMISE YOU THAT MY HEART SHALL EXPAND ITSELF TO SHED IN ABUNDANCE THE INFLUENCE OF ITS DIVINE LOVE UPON THOSE WHO SHALL THUS HONOR IT, AND CAUSE IT TO BE HONORED … “

—JESUS to St. Margaret Alacoque

O MERCIFUL LORD, my heart is broken but Thou art near. My spirit is crushed, but Thou art my Rescuer. Thy Words are Wisdom that gives meaning to my life; and Thy Words art my Hope. It Revives me and Comforts me in difficulties especially now. My soul faints, but Thou art the Breathe of Life within me. Thou art my Help, the ONE Who Sustains me. I am weak but Thou art Strong and Thou art my Strength. Thou Blest those who mourn, and I trust in Thee to bless me and my family with all that we need. Thou will Rescue me from this dark cloud of despair because Thou delight in me. O Most SACRED HEART of my beloved Lord and God, JESUS CHRIST, I implore, that I may ever Love Thee more and more, as I PUT ALL MY HOPE AND TRUST IN THEE! AMEN.

What if there was a prayer that would bring peace to the world and save souls from Hell?

It’s been 105 years since Our Lady first appeared in Fatima with an urgent message of warning and hope. “Pray the Rosary every day to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war” was her request to all the world.

She also asked that we consecrate Russia to her Immaculate Heart. She warned of future wars, persecutions, and the annihilation of various nations should we fail to honor her request:

“If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of
the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world

On March 25th, the feast of the Annunciation, Pope Francis will consecrate Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Now more than ever, it is essential that we honor Our Lady of Fatima’s request to pray the rosary daily.

How to Pray the Rosary

The Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

The Glory Be
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, Amen. 

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

The Apostle’s Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen.

The Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Amen.
