Lord God, help us discern what to ask from you. You know we have so many needs and countless wants. As the Lord Jesus told his first followers to ask for whatever they need, so we too, ask you, first and foremost, to keep us in your presence and protect us today from all danger and evil. May we never ask anything that eventually leads us astray from the way you lead us. Grant us, as well, good health and integral healing in mind, body and spirit. Through the prayer of St. Peregrine, grant healing to all those who suffer from terminal illnesses. Amen.
St. Bernardine of Siena, pray for us.
