Today’s Reflection: Prayer to Mary During Difficult Times Holy Virgin Mary, you are reigning in glory, with Jesus, your Son. Remember us in our sadness. Look kindly on all who are suffering or facing any difficulty. Have pity on those who are separated from someone they love. Have pity on the loneliness of our hearts. Have pity on the weakness of our faith and love. Have pity on those who are weeping, on those who are praying, on those who are fearful. Holy Mother, please obtain for all of us hope and peace with justice. Amen. — Unattributed. Morning Offering is a daily post by Joe Barkovich, who lives in his hometown of Welland, Ontario.
