My mom was attending a retreat last weekend and my brother and I were busy studying for our internals which were scheduled on the following week.I was so happy then, as I could fruitfully use those days, preparing for my exams.
I wondered, because that was the first time in last 12- 14 months , that I was studying with such an enthusiasm.
When my mom returned for the retreat, she revealed the reason for my great keenness to study.
During the retreat days, she was praying really hard for both of us.
She was holding us both in her hands and lifted us up to the Mighty Hands of the Lord.
All through out the retreat days she was strongly interceding for us.
It was because of the power of her prayers, I was experiencing that difference in my life.
The power of the Intercession is really strong, and none of our prayers are left unanswered.The life of St.Monica and St.Augustine, exemplifies this TRUTH to us.
How beautiful our lives would have been If many were there to pray for each one of us everyday!
Lord, help each one of us to lead a beautiful life, according to your will.
Mother Mary , pray for us.
St.Don Bosco, pray for us.
