  7. My mother has been very ill for the last few months. I have stayed with her in the hospital or she has been with me in my home during her illness. One night was particularly tough and when I had a moment to myself, I wanted to vent to someone but instead turned to Scripture. The next day she was much better and we felt for the first time that she could manage her new health conditions. Our time together has been a blessing. Thank you for the emphasis on family. It truly helped me focus on my role in our family.

  60. Thanks for family Peace. Fighting among the family over parents passing and leaving estate. I received divine inspiration from the Holy Spirit to give to those fighting and demanding. I felt an instant relief of weight from my soul. It was not easy to give my parents things away to siblings who do not honor my parents like I do. those were trinkets of this earth. The greed was immense, I would not have seen peace if I did not separate myself from the earthly trinkets. The Holy Spirit took over as soon as I let go. Blessing to all who have to make tough decisions in this world.

The Holy Spirit and the Holy Family were guiding me. Thanks be to God.

  68. I’m feeling like my prayers have been answered even though it’s not what I truly wanted. I’ve been praying this novena for years now for my marriage, now divorced. I am starting to see that even though my marriage wasn’t saved, I am starting to see that I have had a soul tie to my ex husband and I’ve been unable to move on even though he has. I’ve been stuck, praying, begging for reconciliation, it didn’t happen but now I can see that I must move on with my life and pray for the soul bond to be broken. I will pray for this the last prayer left. Thank you mother Mary for helping me realize this!! Please grant the prayers for everyone praying this novena, including myself. Protect my children, nieces, sister, brother, aged parents & uncle. My whole family! Bless us, keep us safe, Protect us in today’s tough world. Amen.
