Today was the last day to get things done before the boys come home tomorrow. I hit the ground running at 8am and didn’t truly sit down till 6:30pm. Now I’m more than ready to see my beautiful boys and just have my family back and all the chaos that ensues when you have boys in the house.
I am glad to have had this last day to meet with some young adults that needed consultation and also have the ability to visit with the Stanton family without worrying about putting my family on hold. As I mentioned yesterday that I needed that one day to rejuvenate and recharge in order to get back into the daily grind, I see that this break from the boys has given me the same result. I have been able to step away from being a ‘mom’ yet now I’m more than ready to see them again and be a better mom.
As we pray and give up our intentions to the Sacred Heart of Jesus let’s take this time to lift up the ones we love the most and that are closest to us. Life is precious and not one moment should be wasted.
Sacred Heart of Jesus an offering prayer – The Raccolta
O Divine Heart of Jesus, grant, I beseech Thee, eternal rest to the souls in purgatory, final grace to all who are to die today, true repentance to sinners, the light of faith to pagans, Thy blessing to me and to all who are mine.
To Thee, O most loving Heart of Jesus, do I therefore commend all these souls, and for them I offer all Thy merits, together with the merits of the most Blessed Mother and of all the saints and angels, and also together with all the Sacrifices of the Mass, the Holy Communions, the prayers and good works that are made today throughout the entire Christian world.
Blessings
