A Powerful Prayer to Fill the Day

If you've read this blog for a while, it's probably unsurprising that I call this prayer "Endurance"

The summary (using LSB numbers) is:

+ 956 130 957 967 +

• Make the sign of the cross and begin to sing "Create in Me"
• Sing (chant) Psalm 130
• Sing the Lord's Prayer
• Pray the "Jesus Prayer" which is not in the LSB but widely known; it was started with the desert fathers: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner."
• Make the sign of the cross as you finish.

This can of course be spoken instead of sung, or kept in the mind, depending on the context limitations. It takes me about 3 minutes, so it's easy to insert into little pockets throughout the day. Very effective against Satan, the World, and the Flesh.

Fury vs Usyk 2

 My prediction: 

Round 1 - Usyk

Round 2 - Fury

Round 3 - Fury

Round 4 - Usyk

Round 5 - Fury

Round 6 - Usyk

Round 7 - Usyk

Round 8 - Fury

Round 9 - Usyk

Round 10 - Usyk wins by TKO

Round 2 is on December 21st! Should be another classic. Can Usyk remain undefeated? Usyk rightly the favorite now at -175.
