Prayer Petitions For June 17, 2020 – Wednesday

Let us humbly pray to God who sent his Son as the Savior and exemplar of his people:
May your people praise you, Lord.

Let us give thanks to God who chose us as the firstfruits of salvation,
— and who called us to share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
May your people praise you, Lord.

May those who confess your holy name be united in your truth,
— and fervent in your love.
May your people praise you, Lord.

Creator of all things, your Son desired to work among men with his own hands,
— be mindful of all who earn their living by the sweat of their brow.
May your people praise you, Lord.

Be mindful of those who devote themselves to the service of their brothers,
— do not let them be deterred from their goals by discouraging results or lack of support.
May your people praise you, Lord.

Be merciful to the faithful departed,
— keep them from the power of the Evil One.
May your people praise you, Lord.

What seems like a coincidence—the spread of the coronavirus has become a pandemic exactly two weeks into the Season of Lent—is actually not mere chance; for Catholics do not believe in mere coincidences. With everything that’s happening, God must have a message. But what is God saying? In this Post, I offer a detailed analysis of the things that God could be telling you and me and the world with this COVID-19 crisis. As the Church celebrates a glorious Easter, take some time to read and think about which ones in the article mean something in your life. I assure you that My Reflection will help in your spiritual understanding of this tumultuous time.

Act of Spiritual Communion
If you are unable to physically receive Holy Communion, especially if you are under lockdown or in isolation in the midst of this pandemic, make a solemn recitation of this Prayer for Spiritual Communion by Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori.
