A single "Blessed be God" in a time of adversity is better than six thousand acts of thanksgiving in times of prosperity.

About Me
- paramedicgirl
- A paramedic who loves her job, but first and foremost, a traditional Catholic who recognizes the tremendous grace and privilege of belonging to the Catholic faith. And yes, I use Canadian spelling. Humour, centre, colour and such. If you think it's spelled wrong, it's just the Canadian way!
In the end, My Immaculate Heart will triumph
Prayer by St. Thomas Aquinas for thanksgiving after Holy Communion
Workman's prayer to St. Joseph
Glorious St. Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labor, obtain for me the grace to work in a spirit of penance for the expiation of my many sins; to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty above my inclinations; to work with gratitude and joy, considering it an honor to employ and develop, by means of labor, the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, moderation and patience, without ever recoiling before weariness or difficulties; to work, above all, with purity of intention, and with detachment from self, having always death before my eyes and the account which I must render of time lost, of talents wasted, of good omitted, of vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work of God. All for Jesus, all for Mary, all after your example, O Patriarch Joseph. Such shall be my watchword in life and in death. Amen.

O gentlest Heart of Jesus, ever present in the Blessed Sacrament, ever consumed with burning love for the poor captive souls in Purgatory, have mercy on the soul of your departed servant Joe. Be not severe in your judgement, but let some drops of Your Precious Blood fall upon him, and send, O merciful Savior, Your angels to conduct him to a place of refreshment, light and peace. Amen.

Consecrated Hands
"Because out of reverence towards this sacrament, nothing touches it, but what is consecrated; hence the corporal and the chalice are consecrated, and likewise the priest's hands, for touching this sacrament." - ST. THOMAS AQUINAS, Summa Theologica

Thanks for this quote..
You're welcome Jackie! It is often so hard to remember to thank God when he sends us trials and tribulations, but He does so for our own good, as a hidden grace. We must remember to thank Him for that.
that is true. but adversity is still challenging when you're suffering stress.
Yes, of course it is challenging and stressful; that's why a single thank you to God for sending you these tribulations to increase your humility and perseverance makes you grow tremendously in grace and faith.
you know, i should have posted that every single day I thank Jesus and tell Him that i love Him. i wonder how many people tell Jesus daily that they love Him? how many thank Him?
Great quote of the day.
Thanx for visiting my Blog and for your comments.
I note from your profile we have 3 things in common. We spell humour, centre and other words the same way Canadian/English. We both like Gregorian Chants and Christian Fiction.
