Novena

Hail and blessed be the hour and moment in which the Son of God was born of the most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight, in Bethlehem, in piercing cold. In that hour, vouchsafe, O my God! to hear my prayer and grant my desires, through the merits of Our Saviour Jesus Christ, and of His Blessed Mother. Amen.

I "feel" as if I'm running out of steam. I ask Jesus to intercede. You wonder about the hereafter and you just want to know. You also don't dare ask questions for awhile. You say your willing to walk by faith but eventually it feels as if all the questions and uncertainty just have worn you down to the point of saying, "lets just get on with it already." So then we gather ourselves up, reminding ourselves we're tough as anyone we've ever seen and then give ourselves license to medicate because its getting to be boring as shit.
