Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.

I am asking this through your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.

  1. I have been looking for a job and praying from the bottom of my heart to get one. I recently was interviewed for a job I truly like but haven\'t heard back from it. I want to remain faithful and find confort in prayer. I\'m asking God to grant me this blessing. I have been battling with depression and anxiety because of my unemployment but lately I have felt a lot better, as if God was taking care of me. I don\'t want these feelings to come back as I become more desperate and impatient about the job. Please pray that I get this job as I know this will bring peace to my heart and bring back my mental health. In God I trust.

    To your most Sacred Heart, I confide this intention (mention your request): Lord, I am asking You to bring C. back into my home for Christmas and I am in her heart. Thank You
    Only look upon me, And then do what your Sacred Heart inspires. Let your Sacred Heart decide; I count on it, I trust in it; I throw myself on Your mercy, Lord Jesus! You will not fail me. You are always here for me! Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in You. Sacred Heart of Jesus, I believe in Your Love for me. Sacred Heart of Jesus, Your Kingdom come. O Sacred Heart of Jesus, I have asked You for many favors, But I earnestly implore this one. Please take it and Thank You. Place it in Your own open, broken, beautiful Heart; And, when the Eternal Father looks upon It, Covered with Your Precious Blood, He will not refuse it. It will no longer be my prayer, But Yours, O Lord Jesus Christ. O Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in You. Let me not be disappointed. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen
    Say this prayer for 3 days, promise publication & your favor will be granted. Never known to fail. Amen

  4. I\'m requesting prayer for peace and to get all my belongings.

    I\'m an American, a veteran of the US Army. I\'m originally from Benin (West Africa). I\'ve been persecuted by people using witchcraft and violence to terrorize me and other people. They manipulate people everywhere I\'ve been in my life to do harm to me and destroy all aspects of my life. They killed my wife, my mother, and other relatives. Wright now, I\'m not working because 24hrs of every day, they bother me in darkness by singing and say all kinds
    of bullies. Please, pray our Lady of Perpetual Help for us so that Her Son, our Savior Jesus-Christ frees us from the wickedness of these people by the
    golden arrows of His Precious and Holy Face we adore every day and His Holy Death!

  10. Hi. I am 19 and next Monday (Dec. 22nd 2014) I will be taking the Accuplacer test for the 4th time. It is for college for PSEO. If I pass I get more options towards classes. There is a certain score you need to pass. I Know I can reach that score but I get anxious and really nervous which causes me to fail. I go back and forth between \"I can pass it\" and \"I don\'t know if I can take it again mentally\" But if I don\'t pass I only have a few options for free classes or I will have to start paying for classes which I can\'t afford. Either way I don\'t know what to take but if I pass at least I\'ll have more choices. Pray for me for when I take it?
