Since my mothers passing, I have been deeply, deeply sad. I sit here typing while I have a candle of St Jude burning next to me. I often stop and say a prayer to Jesus and ask for St Jude to pray for me, as well as Blessed Mother. These candles bring me comfort and I like keeping them close by me, if not surrounding me as I sit in my chair.
I keep saying prayers to Jesus, "Jesus, son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner," I pray.
However, someone told me to talk to Mary now, as she really loves me and is now my Mother I can talk to since my mother passed recently.
I tried to say a very slow and deeply personal and meaningful Hail Mary, slowly saying each word and savoring the meaning of them.
For example, "Mother of God," I said as if it were so very profound, because it is. Just those 3 words are so powerful.
Anyways, I keep saying the Hail Mary when I was walking outside, and I felt her soothing and calming presence, and she smiled and said, "My child."
It was so beautiful.
This is of course all spiritual, and it was my first time. I've never prayed to Mary only seeking her help. I have never before felt her presence and her soothing ways, when you pray to her.
Is she really my new mother now?
What have you experienced and what more can I pray to her about?
Any other recommended prayers ?
