Just offer it up!

We have all heard the Catholic mantra "Just offer it up"

For someone with a chronic pain disease that is fairly easy. For a normal person, not so much. I find myself telling other people to do it all of the time, and about 85% of the time they dont know what I am talking about.  Sure they have heard of the concept before, but they dont know how to do said offering.

Well here's how!

You are standing in line at the grocery store with only one lane open. The checker is 16 and has no idea what he is doing, and its an old man who has 100 items and fusses at the poor kid about the price of every other item. Then a glass jar breaks. This is going to take forever and you just wanna get home to see your favorite tv show and eat dinner that is waiting for you. You are getting really annoyed, and here is the perfect opportunity to offer up your frustration. There is nothing you can do about it, so what you do is take your frustration and turn it into a prayer. something like this, "Lord, i know there is nothing i can do in this moment, so by your Divine power, enable my suffering to help others" And its a simple as that. And you can do this with just about anything.

So now, when someone tells you to just offer it up, you know what to do!

Our Lady of Manaoag - Pray for the Philippines


PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF MANAOAG

Virgin Mother of God, Queen of the most Holy Rosary, Thou who hast chosen to raise thy throne of mercy in Manaoag, to be the beloved protectress and patron of the Province of Pangasinan, and therefrom to bestow thy graces on us thy children, banished in this alley of tears, look down with Thine eyes of mercy upon me, who am beset with so many dangers of body and soul. Despise not my petition O dearest Mother, but intercede for me before thy divine Son now and at the hour of my death. Amen.

VIRGIN OF MANAOAG, Pray for us and present our intention to Jesus your Son and Our Lord:

(For those suffering the effects of the recent Typhoon and the recovery of the Philippines)

(3) Hail Mary's and
(3) Glory be to the Father
