Pater Noster
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

The Hail Mary
Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

St. Joan of Arc
In the face of your enemies,
in the face of harassment,
ridicule, and doubt,
you held firm in your faith.
Even in your abandonment,
alone and without friends,
you held firm in your faith.

I pray that I may be as bold
in my beliefs as you, St. Joan.
I ask that you ride alongside me
in my own battles.
Help me be mindful that
what is worthwhile can be won
when I persist.
Help me hold firm in my faith.
Help me believe in my ability
to act well and wisely.
Amen.

Those are my three daily prayers before bed. After that I talk with God for a while and ask for forgiveness of my sins, and finally I also thank Him for all the good things He has given me.

>He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit on the man’s eyes and put his hands on him, Jesus asked, “Do you see anything?”. He looked up and said, “I see people; they look like trees walking around.” Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly.
Uuuh christbros why did the lord omnipotent need to use saliva to heal the blind man like some ham-fisted medicine man, and, more importantly, why didnt the miracle work the first time?

did Jesus endure the wrath of God or was He the bait to trick Satan into releasing mankind from the clutches of evil?
