The Lord Himself taught us to pray: give us this day our daily bread...; the first miracle that Jesus performed, by which He manifested Himself to His disciples , was of a material nature. Mary appears at Cana, where, "manifesting to the Son with delicate supplication a temporal need, she also obtains an effect of grace: that Jesus, by performing the first of his "signs", confirm the disciples in their faith in Him ". By the unity of life, all goods of a material nature redound, in some way, to the glory of God. That miracle at Cana, performed through Mary's intercession, encourages us and moves us to ask for temporal graces, which are necessary or convenient for us in our daily lives: help to get by in a financial hurry, the cure of an illness, to pass a difficult exam for which we have studied "One asks in prayer to be granted a wife according to his desire, another asks for a country house, another for a dress and another asks for food. Indeed, when there is a need for these things we must ask God Almighty; but we must always keep in mind the command of our Redeemer: Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all other things will be given you besides (Mt 6:33). Let us not dedicate the best part of our prayer to asking only for "additions".
It is very pleasing to our Lord that we ask him for graces and help for others, and that we ask other people to pray for us and for our apostolate: "Pray for me," I asked him as I always do. And he answered me in amazement: "Is something wrong with him?
"I had to make it clear to him that something happens to all of us or happens to us at any moment; and I added that, when prayer is lacking, "more things happen and weigh down".18 And prayer prevents and alleviates them.
Our prayer should be full of abandonment to God and of a profound supernatural sense, since, as John Paul II said, it is a matter of fulfilling God's work, and not our own. It is a matter of doing it according to his inspiration and not according to our own feelings. Our Lady will straighten out all petitions that are not completely upright, in order to always obtain the best. In the Holy Rosary we have a "powerful weapon " to obtain from God as much help as we and those people for whom we pray daily need.
