the Story of a Mother, the Story of Faith ...became our story.. how beautifully named our Mother is in this address Our Mother of Perpetual Help... this is one of my most favorite ... why? the picture says it all (credits to the owners of all these pictures).. one sigh, one look and shes there to help...ask!
Jesus loved us so very much! He loves His Mother so very much that His first miracle in the wedding in Cana (John 2:1-12) was brought about by His love and obedience to His Mother.
Even one of His 7 LAST words in John 19:26 was an endorsement of us to His Mother, a HABILIN (in Filipino ) something that the dying gives.. in trust and
and for safekeeping, His mother....
" Woman, behold your son, son, behold thy mother" .
was a true sign and example for us, He left us Mary and we in turn became
adopted sons and daughters, that simple ...and it doesnt end there til
the last of her sons and daughters get to heaven whether they believe
her or not, whether they reject her or not, She is there always! there..
never leaving us... if we only ask...Our Lady of Perpetual Help, pray for us, aid us never leave us in this journey of life. Pray for us mother ..now til the time of our deaths..amen
A Prayer to Our Lady of Perpetual Help
O Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke thy most powerful name, which is the safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O Purest Mary, O Sweetest Mary, let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me whenever I call on thee, for, in all my needs, in all my temptations I shall never cease to call on thee, ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary, Mary. O what consolation, what sweetness, what confidence, what emotion fill my soul when I pronounce thy sacred name, or even only think of thee. I thank God for having given thee, for my good, so sweet, so powerful, so lovely a name. But I will not be content with merely pronouncing thy name: let my love for thee prompt me ever to hail thee, Mother of Perpetual Help.
