Unraveling Society: Breakdown of Marriage & Family

The family is the building block of society. "As the family goes, so goes the nation, and so goes the whole world in which we live."

In his 1963 encyclical letter entitled “Pacem in terris”, Pope St. John XXIII wrote:
The family, founded upon marriage freely contracted, one and indissoluble, must be regarded as the natural, primary cell of human society. The interests of the family, therefore, must be taken very specially into consideration in social and economic affairs, as well as in the spheres of faith and morals. For all of these have to do with strengthening the family and assisting it in the fulfilment of its mission.

[CatholicCarlismEnjoyer]

The family is the smallest and most important unit in society and not the individual as too many secular conservatives believe.

[MaryKane-qvvz]

If in doubt look at the state of Society since so many marriages have failed. Seek the Lord while He can still be found

Jesus. Jesus. Jesus.
Oh Jesus, sometimes You feel far away.
Sometimes You feel close enough

to put your hand on my shoulder.

Show me how and give me the grace

to give you everything this Lent.


Please help me to do my best,

and by leadership or by example,

to help my family and friends do their best.

Because I love you

and I want to love you more.

Teach me that your grace

is the only wealth I need.

Please, dear Jesus,

you healed so many people

during your time on earth

and during the ensuing centuries,

through the intercession

of your Immaculate Mother,  

all the saints, all the angels,

and all the relatives in heaven

of all Mary Foundation benefactors,

please give me the courage

to allow my Cross to carry me,

and to convert and heal me

and everyone I love

in mind, body, and soul.


Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Amen.

Iesu, dulcis memória,
dans vera cordis gáudia:
sed super mel et ómnia
eius dulcis præséntia.
Nil cánitur suávius,
nil audítur iucúndius,
nil cogitátur dúlcius,
quam Iesus Dei Fílius.
Iesu, spes pæniténtibus,
quam pius es peténtibus!
quam bonus te quæréntibus!
sed quid inveniéntibus?
Nec lingua valet dícere,
nec líttera exprímere:
expértus potest crédere,
quid sit Iesum dilígere.
Sis, Iesu, nostrum gáudium,
qui es futúrum prǽmium:
sit nostra in te glória,
per cuncta semper sǽcula.

Christe Eleison 🕊️ *Surrender Prayer*

God, my Father, I thank you for all that you are, and all that you do for me through your son Jesus Christ. I praise you for my life, for your mercy and for your Eucharist. In Jesus’ name, Father, I place myself entirely in your Heart. I surrender to you my whole self, my heart, my mind, my memory, my imagination, my will, my emotions, my passions, my body, my sexuality, my desire for human approval, my weaknesses, my desires, my sins.

I surrender every person in my life to you. I surrender every situation in my life to you. I surrender every relationship I am in to you. I surrender every concern I have to you. I surrender every fear I have to you. I surrender every doubt I have to you. I surrender all confusion I have to you. I surrender all sadness I am experiencing in my heart to you. I surrender all my wounds to you. I surrender all anxiety and worry I have to you. I surrender all that deceives me in my heart to you. I trust you to care for me and others in a perfectly loving way.

As I have emptied myself, and surrendered everything to you, I ask you now, Father, to fill me with your Holy Spirit and all the gifts and fruits of your Spirit.

Holy Spirit you are the source of love, hope, joy, peace, patience, goodness, gentleness, tenderness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. Purify my desires.

Help me to open my heart to you. Help me to become perfectly receptive as a pure child. Help me to believe in your love for me. Help me to hope in your love. Help me to receive from the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus all grace and virtues necessary for me to become the person you created me to be. I ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ, Your son, God Almighty Father.

O Most Holy Immaculate Virgin Mary. I entrust this prayer to your Heart, and ask you to press it to your wounded heart and intercede for me to your Son Jesus. Please help me to be as you are, a perfect disciple, an obedient servant, a true child of God. Amen🙏🏻

[robkings]

Rubbish.
Get out from under your self centered, self righteousness. Jesus spoke of love and forgiveness; try to open your heart to what is different from what you know. You mention mercy but you end up ominously threatening “justice”. Not at all the open arms of love, not at all Christlike.
