I’m moving to a new blog.
I know I’ve literally just started but I’m getting tired of the dash I have with my current main blog so I’m just gonna make a new account. It’s currently @walktoemmausblog but I’ll change it to walktoemmaus asap. I’ll keep this blog up, but I won’t post here any more (except for what’s in my queue).
Sorry for the inconvenience! Go follow me there!
Posting again for those who missed it.

The Sub tuum praesidium is probably the oldest Christian prayer dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. This prayer was long used in both Eastern and Western rites, even if numerous variants existed at the time. In 1917, the John Rylands Library in Manchester managed to acquire a large panel of Egyptian papyrus – the exact area where they were discovered is unknown – including an 18 cm by 9.4 cm fragment containing the text of this prayer in Greek. This scrap of papyrus is dated to 250 AD. The Sub tuum praesidium thus precedes by several centuries the Ave Maria in Christian prayer.
GREEK
Ὑπὸ τὴν σὴν εὐσπλαγχνίαν, καταφεύγομεν, Θεοτόκε. Τὰς ἡμῶν ἱκεσίας, μὴ παρίδῃς ἐν περιστάσει, ἀλλ᾽ ἐκ κινδύνων λύτρωσαι ἡμᾶς, μόνη Ἁγνή, μόνη εὐλογημένη.
LATIN
Sub tuum praesidium confugimus, Sancta Dei Genetrix. Nostras deprecationes ne despicias in necessitatibus nostris, sed a periculis cunctis libera nos semper, Virgo gloriosa et benedicta
ENGLISH
We fly to Thy protection, O Holy Mother of God; Do not despise our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O Glorious and Blessed Virgin.

Sometimes I feel like I pray too much that I’ll annoy God. But then I think, “I’d rather get to Heaven and have Jesus say, ‘now there’s a familiar voice’ than have him say, ‘it’s nice to finally hear from you.’”
If someone murders a pregnant woman and her fetus dies as well, that person can be convicted of double homicide; if a woman goes out of her way to abort a fetus, the world is silent. Words like kill, murder, death, are taboo. What’s the difference? One child was wanted, the other was not.
I’m tired of people not being wanted. I’ve never met a person who wasn’t shining like the sun. There’s something beautiful about human beings, just being.
The more the human person gives himself, the more he finds himself.
