Devotion to Santo Anastasio: fight against bad thoughts!

Devotion to Santo Anastasio: Saint Athanasius the Great, bishop, doctor of the Church. He was born in 295 in Alessandria. At a young age, he lived in isolation in the Egyptian desert, where he met Sant 'Antonio his teacher. In 319 he was diaconized. As secretary to Bishop Alexander. And he participated in the Synod of Nicaea, contributed to the condemnation of the Aryans. He later became metropolitan of Alexandria. 

The struggle of the Aryans with the Church, to which the successive emperors joined, cast a deep shadow on the life and pastoral care of St. Athanasius. Five times he was forced by successive rulers to leave Alexandria and remain in exile. Trier, Rome and the desert were the places of his 17 years of exile. St. Athanasius preached the Christianity in Ethiopia and Arabia. He was an excellent preacher and an outstanding theologian. He died on May 2nd.

O Lord, Jesus Christ, as well as my beloved and almighty God, full of goodness and mercy, I ask you with extreme humility and with the utmost confidence that my heart can conquer and free me from all evil, blasphemous, impure, aggressive thoughts. Remove all fear and anxiety from me. Free yourself from nightmares. Fulfill, O Lord, the promise you made to the Church in the Upper Room and that you renew us at every one Santa Mass: “I leave you my peace, I give you my peace. Not as the world gives. I give you. "

But because if in the aggressive and intrusive thoughts that cause me so much suffering there is the participation of an evil spirit, I humbly ask: You, mySir and God, beloved Savior, order him to leave me and not to return. Let me find in Your Sacred Heart a refuge, support and shelter, so that I can praise the power of Your infinite Mercy. Pray with us brother, because we write our words with heart, we are with you at all times. So that our souls are closer to your Holy Spirit. I hope you enjoyed this Devotion to Santo Anastasius.
