Prayer in the Beginning of Sickness
O Heavenly Father, who in Thy wisdom knowest what is best for me, glory be to Thee. Lord, if it seem good in Thy sight, remove from me this sickness which I now feel seizing upon me, that I may employ my health to Thy glory, and praise Thy name. But if Thou art pleased it should grow on me, I willingly submit to Thy afflicting hand, for Thou art wont to chasten those whom Thou dost love, and Thou hast promised not to lay on me any more than Thou wilt enable me to bear. I know, O my God, that Thou sendest this sickness on me for my good, even to humble and to prove me; O grant that it may not fail to work that saving effect in me. O Lord, create in me a true sorrow for all my past sins, a firm faith in Thee, and sincere resolutions of amendment for the time to come. Deliver me from all fretfulness and impatience, and give me entire resignations to Thy divine will: O suffer not my sickness to take away my senses, and do Thou continually supply my thoughts with holy aspirations. Lord, bless all the means that are used for my recovery, and restore me to health, if it be Thy will, in Thy good time; but if Thou hast appointed otherwise for me, Thy blessed will be done. O wean my affections from all things of earth,and fill me with ardent desires after heaven: Lord, fit me for Thyself, and then call me, when Thou pleasest, to that joy unspeakable and full of glory; for the sake of Thine Only Son, Jesus Christ, my Lord and Saviour.
I am so thankful to you brothers and sisters for putting up this channel. I am studying the Book of Heaven and watching our prophets to help me gage the times and this Channel has become one of my main gotos for information and encouragement. You are lovely people and I am amazed at how much you accomplish for the benefit of others. I pray that you are covered and shielded by the Blood of Christ.
One last thing too, perhaps you can help me. I am looking for a source of St Michael’s Oil and of the White Hawthorn herb our Mother speaks of and turning up very little. Are you aware of any sources?
Thanks and Blessings to you all.
