Follow Me!

Total spirituality requires a total detachment condition, and so the Lord Himself laid it down that no one can be His disciple unless he renounce not merely most but all that he possesses. We who...

One response to “Follow Me!”

  1. Jose says:

    Lord give us faith and strength to take our crosses and walk the narrow path to salvation in peace and in the joy of the Holy Spirit, learning self renunciation. Teach us and remind us to, at all times, embrace and love our crosses and thank the Father for them. Hold our hands in our never ending journeys to character formation and spiritual maturation. Walk always ahead and behind us, protect us and surround us in our purpose to become well adjusted and adaptable Christians, true salt of the world. Guide us Teacher to accept the Father’s Will in our lives, while trusting His purpose with humility. You said “take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”Jesus help us say, like John the Baptist, “He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30) and St. Paul “It is not longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me” (Galatians 2:20.) Everything works out better when You are in control of our reactions, plans, priorities, decisions and values. Also, when You confront our challenges, You guide the way, You teach us simplicity and gratitude. With You there is unshakable hope, our emotions are lighter and our relationships never toxic, but fruitful. You give success to our endeavors and family lives in remarkable or miraculous ways, when we accept Your Will. This is even when things seem desperately painful and impossible to overcome.Faithful and Merciful Savior, You don’t deny us Grace when we walk away, following our own plans. You always bring us safely back to the Father, even when the world around us seems hostile. Everything rests in the palm of Your Hand. You found Your creation to be Very Good, only surpassed by Your Salvation through Christ. You will renew the face of the earth, forgive our sins and remake us in Your Son’s Image; now gradually and then perfectly in the world to come. Strengthen this Faith that sustains us.Jesus, You have the Name over every other name, King of the Universe. You call us friends, suffered and died for us. Physician of our souls, give us Your Divine Light and heal our spiritual blindness, show us Your presence in (all) others so we can overcome selfishness and learn generosity and forgiveness. Help us say like Mary “My Soul proclaims the Greatness of the Lord, my Spirit rejoices in God my Savior. For He has looked with favor on His lowly Servant/Slave…For He has done great things for me and Holy is His name!” We are also very blessed with having such Mother in Heaven.Thank you Jesus Christ for blessing us with the power of becoming children of God. Thank you for Your Church, our Mother, so our children have become also Your children. Always call them to You. Help us pass on the treasure of the Catholic Faith with our life example. Amen.Sacred Heart of Jesus I trust in You! Immaculate Heart of Mary in You I find refuge!

Pray anywhere
I have prayed the Divine Office for many years. [...] When I discovered this app, all of my concerns of ribbon placement were gone. Having the Divine Office on my phone is absolutely the best thing ever! The sense of community is so wonderful as I see how many others are praying at the same time as myself. [...] Now I don’t need to turn a lamp on as I use to when I used the Office printed volumes. It is such a blessing to have the Divine Office in my pocket. Many times I’ve been sitting in a doctor’s waiting room at the time of Mid Morning prayer. It is so calming of any worries to pull out my phone, open the app, and be able to connect with Our Lord at those times I need Him most. I don’t use the audio version much but the few times I’ve traveled, it is so comforting to not have to skip the Office in order to keep my hands on the steering wheel and my eyes in the road. I recommend this app to friends all the time, especially to those who’d like to pray the Office but feel intimidated by the size of the printed version and getting the ribbons placed properly. Thank you for developing this app. It is my constant companion.

Super helpful
I have only been introduced to the divine office prayers two times before I downloaded this app. It is laid out in a way that is very easy to understand, and there is an audio option that will say all of the prayers. There is an option to set reminders throughout the day. I got this because, I didn’t really know how to say the divine office, and I didn’t know what prayer books I needed to purchase to begin. During the shutting down of churches for covid :( this has been a wonderful resource. One cool feature is that you can tap on the “in prayer” link and see little specks of light around the globe lighting up in the area that someone else is praying. It’s so cool to see everyone praying with you and is a powerful reminder that we are all connected and unified in Christ’s mystical body.

Praying with the whole Church
I love this app! Since it is now free and no longer for sale, I made sure to donate the price of buying it, and then some. I have loved the Liturgy of the Hours for 25 years. But I always felt alone when I prayed it. With this app, I am connected to others! I use it in conjunction with my printed Christian Prayer volume. On other days, I cannot get to my book but with the app, I always have the prayers available. I have the printed calendar with my book, but I actually rely on this more for placing my ribbons. The audio is wonderful!! I often read out loud with it. I love that I can change the speed of the audio! I have found that 1.3 is good for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this app. Thank you for still supporting it. Thank you for updating the “one God,” to just “God” change in the prayers. My book still throws me off but your app is right! Highly recommend this. Many friends have it. THANK YOU!!
