To the Reader
This collection of
prayers is an effort to apply the scientific method to the Truths of
our Roman Catholic Faith, to obtain more grace to better serve God,
drawing particularly on that gigantic source of God's Infinite
Goodness and Mercy - a source virtually untapped - PROPHETIC
REVELATIONS.
"When it's a
question of prophetic revelations the Pope is the SOLE judge!"
Pope
Leo X (5Th Council of Lateran 1513)
Dedication
The Blessed Virgin
said: "You love Me and make others love Me." This revised edition of
the Pieta Prayers is dedicated to Thee Dear Lady of Ephesus as an act
of love to honor thine Assumption. "I am all thine my Queen and
Mother and all that I have is Thine."
Purpose
Scripture says:
"Pray without ceasing." St. Paul of the Cross wrote: "We enter on the
broad road of perdition when we neglect prayer." Dr. Alexis Carrel
wrote: "If you make a habit of prayer, your life will be profoundly
altered." As a scientist he turned to prayer as man's highest
activity; that conversation with God to be an art of all arts.
May this Pieta
Collection of Prayers serve as a spiritual tool for souls who wish to
increase their daily prayer life.
