Prayers for Tita San

All we can do right now is pray for Tita San. The heart is hoping for the best, the mind is preparing for the worst. But I do believe in the power of prayer and have witnessed first hand how powerful and uplifting it is.

This was written by Bang:

Dearest God,

Please heal Tita San and grant her more years to live. Restore her health, restore her mind, restore her body. Grant her total healing Lord. Cleanse her of all infections, rid her of her tumor. Give her the courage to fight and conquer the cancer that is attacking her body now. Strengthen her will and determination to live. Give her hope, Lord, and shower her with Your great love and power at this time of great need, now more than ever before.

We pray for the doctors and the people taking care of her; may they be instruments of Your healing. We pray for our family; may we be instruments of Your hope. Let her feel nothing but love from the people around her. Ease her suffering, lighten her burden.

You have been our source of hope and strength, Lord. You are the source of life. You alone can save her. We rest our hope in You. You have granted her a miracle before and we are most thankful to You for those extra years. We pray that You will perform another miracle yet again.

But, Lord, if You have a better plan for her, then do with her as You please. She is your beloved daughter, and we know You will not abandon her. We lift our Tita San up to You, Lord; Your will be done. Be with her and keep her by Your side always.

We ask these through the intercession of Mama Mary and St. Therese.

Amen.

Beautiful prayer, very touching. This is going on my blog as a reminder to family and friends to say a prayer, any prayer, for Tita San. But if we all say the same prayer, I firmly believe that God will hear us more.
