St. Jude Novena: Day 5

I try to have faith that if my intention is not granted exactly, that the Universe (God) knows best. But this is very hard, very hard. I am still depressed and want to just sleep so I don't have to face the pain of the day. I have no energy to do the things I used to love doing, let alone the things I have to do (like, clean my house! a clean house helps clear the mind and soul). So, my goals for today is to help someone is some way, to may a difference in someone else's difficult time AND to clean my house. But, I won't beat myself up if I can't achieve this things. I have no energy but hopefully I will find some.

O Holy St. Jude, apostle and companion of Christ Jesus, you have shown us by example how to live a life of zeal and devotion. I humbly entreat you today to hear my prayer and petitions. Especially do I ask you to obtain for us the following favor (mention your request). Grant that in praying for present and future favors I may not forget the innumerable ones granted in the past but often return to give thanks. Humbly I resign myself to God's holy will, knowing that he alone knows what is best for us especially in my present needs and necessities. Amen.
St. Jude, pray for us.
My Jesus, mercy
