This really surprised me. I'm an optimist. And when I don’t think about it too much, I assume that the Catholic Church is a strong body of believers in Jesus Christ. Something about this thing I stumbled across made me think of all the Catholics I know that don’t live like they have a relationship with Jesus. There is so much to be gained by treating Jesus like the Lord and brother He is, and it makes me sad when people miss out on that.
What I found was the proposed patron saint for Internet users. Here’s the picture, and here is the prayer you’re supposed to say before you get on the Internet.
Almighty and eternal God,
Who created us in Thy image
and bade us to seek after all that is good,
true and beautiful,
especially in the divine person of Thy only-begotten Son,
our Lord Jesus Christ,
grant we beseech Thee that,
through the intercession of Saint Isidore,
bishop and doctor,
during our journeys through the internet we will direct our hands and eyes only to that which is pleasing to Thee and
treat with charity and patience all those souls whom we encounter.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen
