Prayer against Depression

O Christ Jesus,
when all is darkness
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.

Daily mass readings June 28,2022

Daily mass readings: Memorial of Saint Irenaeus, Bishop and Martyr

Reading I : Am 3:1-8; 4:11-12

Hear this word, O children of Israel, that the LORD pronounces over you,
over the whole family that I brought up from the land of Egypt:

        You alone have I favored,
                    more than all the families of the earth;
        Therefore I will punish you
                    for all your crimes.

        Do two walk together
                    unless they have agreed?
        Does a lion roar in the forest
                    when it has no prey?
        Does a young lion cry out from its den
                    unless it has seized something?
        Is a bird brought to earth by a snare
                    when there is no lure for it?
        Does a snare spring up from the ground
                    without catching anything?
        If the trumpet sounds in a city,
                    will the people not be frightened?
        If evil befalls a city,
                    has not the LORD caused it?
        Indeed, the Lord GOD does nothing
                    without revealing his plan
                    to his servants, the prophets.

        The lion roars—
                    who will not be afraid!
        The Lord GOD speaks—
                    who will not prophesy!

        I brought upon you such upheaval
                    as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah:
                    you were like a brand plucked from the fire;
        Yet you returned not to me,
                    says the LORD.

        So now I will deal with you in my own way, O Israel!
                    and since I will deal thus with you,
                    prepare to meet your God, O Israel.

Responsorial Psalm : 5:4b-6a, 6b-7, 8

R. (9a) Lead me in your justice, Lord.
At dawn I bring my plea expectantly before you.
For you, O God, delight not in wickedness;
no evil man remains with you;
the arrogant may not stand in your sight.
R. Lead me in your justice, Lord.
You hate all evildoers;
you destroy all who speak falsehood;
The bloodthirsty and the deceitful
the LORD abhors.
R. Lead me in your justice, Lord.
But I, because of your abundant mercy,
will enter your house;
I will worship at your holy temple
in fear of you, O LORD.
R. Lead me in your justice, Lord.

Alleluia : Psalm 130:5

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
I trust in the LORD;
my soul trusts in his word.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel : Mt 8:23-27

As Jesus got into a boat, his disciples followed him.
Suddenly a violent storm came up on the sea,
so that the boat was being swamped by waves;
but he was asleep.
They came and woke him, saying,
“Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
He said to them, “Why are you terrified, O you of little faith?”
Then he got up, rebuked the winds and the sea,
and there was great calm.
The men were amazed and said, “What sort of man is this,
whom even the winds and the sea obey?”
