Prayer of St. Jerome

Lord, thou hast given us thy Word for a light to shine upon our path; grant us so to meditate on that Word, and to follow its teaching, that we may find in it the light that shines more and more until the perfect day; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

by (Saint) Jerome, 390 A.D.

Prayer for Help with the Burdens of Life

Grant me, I pray, your divine helping grace; endow me with patience and strength to endure my tribulations with complete submission to your will. You know my misery and suffering and to you, my only hope and refuge, I flee for relief and comfort; trusting your infinite love and compassion, that in due time, when you know it is for the best, you will deliver me from my troubles, and turn my distress into comfort, and I will rejoice in your mercy, and exalt and praise your Holy Name, O Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Amen.

O good shepherd, seek me out, and bring me home to your fold again. Deal favorably with me according to your good pleasure, until I may dwell in your house all the days of my life, and praise your forever and ever with them that are there. Amen.

from a prayer of St. Jerome, 408 A.D.

Father, We thank you for your faithful protection and for hearing us when we pray. How often we observe one anther and feel that we think as you do. When we read your word, we are reminded that you are looking for those whose heart is in tune with yours. A heart for you is a heart filled with love, kindness, patience, forgiveness, gentleness, not judgmental, and empty of self. Will you forgive us today for judging what we see, when only you can see each heart?

*****

Dear Father in heaven, I come to You in the name of Jesus. Thank you Lord, for so many wonderful promises in Your Word. I come to You humbly, and ask that You remove any prideful attitudes in my heart and life. I truly want to follow in Your ways and serve You. Help me to trust You when things are going wrong, as much as when things are going right. I realize to walk in faith, that I must believe that You will help me with my current problems even though I do not see a way at this time. You will make a way, as You have never failed anyone who comes to You in faith. Thank you for good health, mentally and physically. I am so glad my name is written in the Book of Life. Use me to help others find the way to heaven. Thank you, Jesus. Amen.
