Prayer to Saint Barbara
O Saint Barbara, your life serves as a vivid reminder that our world is filled with extreme anger and pain, but our faith and hope in God can carry us through the worst trails. Be by our side so that we may face all storms, wars, trials and tribulations with the same fortitude with which you faced yours.
St. Barbara, pray for us that we might do our best, preserve in troubles and trust in God for everything. Keep us alert and protect us from the dangers that surrounds us. Help us to always remain in God’s grace and be prepared for the hour of our death. Overcoming all struggles, may we be grateful to you, our protector, and give thanks to God, the Creator of heaven and earth, who has the power to dominate the fury of the storm and to mitigate the cruelty of war. Through Jesus Christ, Amen.
