The Power and Compassion of the Cross

The power of the cross is not in the cross alone

but in the one whom it represents

It is for healing mankind

It shows the way to truth

that is the way to God

Our Father who is all compassionate, 

All loving is always with us

And he always cares for us

Jesus points the way to grace and humility

Which leads us to life everlasting

This is the narrow way 

That is described in the Bible

Narrow meaning filled with virtue

Straight meaning doing 

God's will every step of the way

The very path of truth and light

Flowing from our Blessed Lord

From his heart to our hearts

Amen

Jesus Dies on the Cross

As Jesus is dying on the cross

He is dying for all of us

No matter our nationality,

Skin pigments,

Family situations,

Gender, or beliefs.

He died to make us virtuous, and loving.

Because he is all virtuous and all-loving.

For he is God incarnate.

Amen

A Prayer for George Floyd

Oh, Mother Mary,

Grant that we who are enlightened by the life, death, and resurrection of your Son

May ever meditate on the teachings of Christ

That we may serve Him with honor and joy

And that we may serve our brothers and sisters in Christ

And that we may treat everyone equally 

Regardless of whatever makes them different from us

We should accept everyone for who they are

We should love everyone 

And help them to be all they can be to others

We need to use our platforms to speak peace and joy

Amen

The Road to Holiness

Oh Jesus, loving Jesus

Savior of the world

Show us the way to peace, love, and joy

Give us help to do what is right

and avoid what is wrong

Show us the path that leads to the dearly beloved heavenly Father

Oh Jesus, show us the path that leads to truth

Help us to know the way to handle all that we encounter

Help us to have holiness of mind

Holiness of heart, and

Holiness of body.

To be upright and dutiful in the sight of God

Amen

Mother Mary, Tender and Caring

Mother Mary, so strong and so bright

Oh Mother Mary who shines the light

You are tender

You are caring

Showing us the way to Christ

Ever before us, that way is nearing

Teach us all to walk the way the leads to Christ

That his teaching may be put into our hearts

To calm our mind and heart

A flower for the Queen of Heaven

A pink flower for our blessed lady

Teach us to be a flower too

That is a flower in virtue

Teach us to love and grow in holiness

Show us the way of joy and peace

Amen

A Prayer to Follow the Teachings of Jesus

Oh, Jesus 

By the light that comes from you

and your teachings

Keep our minds and hearts pure 

from thoughts of sin and evil

Teach us to avoid sin

Show us the path of truth

That winds and turns through our lives

Though the path of truth is straight

in the eyes of God

It is crooked in the eyes of man

For man is not God

and can only see 

so far ahead of himself

Amen

Dancing at the Tomb

While some lay flowers

Others lay stones.

Our Messiah and Savior 

Has risen from the dead

Therefore let us dance at his tomb.

For we, who have commemorated his death,

Should celebrate his resurrection.
