Pray for Families (Battling Confusion)

 Greetings Prayer Warriors,


These are confusing times. Families are facing challenges previously never even imagined. Lies are paraded around as truth. We have pronoun wars, gender wars, political wars, healthcare wars, religion wars, and border wars, just to name a few. All wars are meant to control someone or something. 


An acquaintance, whose daughter has cancer, is fighting with a healthcare system so that she can access her 13 year old’s medical chart. Mind you, the 13 year old doesn’t have email nor is internet savvy. Apparently, parent’s lose access to their child’s health records once they are 13 years old. Who is being protected?


Who is fighting for the children? The families? 


Some foster parents are struggling to keep a child from being sent back to a drug-addicted mother. Who is being protected?

Vaccines with limited long term safety testing are often mandated for little children and babies. Parents are not being given full informed consent, nor can they sue a vaccine manufacturer if their child is harmed. Who is being protected?

Draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power. Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil. For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens. Ephesians 6:10-12


We are fighting for the children and the families. With prayer, fasting, and the rosary as our weapons, we are empowered to fight, to push back, and to hold our ground in defense and protection of the truth. By immersing ourselves in the Gospel of Truth, the Lord will give us the words and tools necessary for combat. Wield the power of prayer. Pray, pray, pray!


Therefore, put on the armor of God, that you may be able to resist on the evil day and, having done everything, to hold your ground. So stand fast with your loins girded in truth, clothed with righteousness as a breastplate, and your feet shod in readiness for the gospel of peace. In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield, to quench all [the] flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Ephesians 6:13-17


The list of concerns is endless, but do not dwell in worry, instead,


Trust in the LORD with all your heart, on your own intelligence do not rely; In all your ways be mindful of him, and he will make straight your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6


Peace, Joy, and Love,

Janet
