Saint Jude, as we enter the new year, I pray for my family to leave behind all the trials and tribulations we experienced in 2024 and not carry them into 2025.

I pray that my daughter receives an opportunity for an interview at Apple Bank for the positions she has been hoping for in 2025. She has been under so much pressure from the present establishment that she’s presently working at. She’s in constant fear that every time she arrives at work, it will be her last day. St. Jude, I pray that you will bless my daughter with true peace within her working life. Please support her application for a position at Apple Bank near her home. Also, please ensure the salary is commensurate with her years of experience and expertise that she will bring to the position she hopes to secure.

I ask that all the pain she experienced in 2024 does not follow her into the new year, and that she can support her family without living paycheck to paycheck. I also pray that my grandson learns to show respect to all his classmates and excels in his academic studies at school. I pray that my granddaughter is blessed with wisdom and knowledge that genuinely enable her to understand her worth and excel in all her college courses. Amen.

Saint Jude, my granddaughter, is experiencing so much animosity and tension at college that she’s being singled out by three coaches who strongly resent her for some unforeseen reason. My prayer for my granddaughter is that she’s blessed with wisdom, knowledge, and the insight to understand that she’s protected by our Lord and Savior, who will prevent her tormentors from continuously physically and mentally abusing her while she’s attending college. Bless her with the knowledge that she will arise from her tormentors with our Lord and Savior’s blessings.

Saint Jude, please watch over my grandson, who is facing many difficulties in his life after being abandoned by his father at a young age. He truly needed love, guidance, and support during that time. Please help him learn how to become a productive young man in society and lead a fulfilling life. My grandson is feeling lost and is walking down a dark and dangerous path. He has seemingly lost all interest in his schoolwork and after-school activities and is now more consumed with playing on his Xbox and watching videos on YouTube. Saint Jude, I pray that you bless my grandson and help him find relief from the pain and suffering caused by his father’s abandonment. Help him understand that there is life after this painful experience. Amen.

Lastly, I ask for blessings for my other daughter, who is suffering from diabetes. May she learn to educate herself about managing her condition and be able to eat at least three healthy meals daily to combat devastating weight loss. May she be blessed with maintaining a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Amen.
