最近我不是在卖房子吗,周围很多热心的朋友包括我的中介给我支招,费了好大的劲把旧房子翻修装饰一新,放到市场上。这么低迷的房市,房子什么时候才能出手实在是不可预知。有个朋友特意叮嘱我,要在这里卖掉房子,一定要St. Joseph 帮忙! 谁是St. Joseph? 原来是耶稣的养父,圣母玛丽亚的老公。朋友告诉我宁信其有,她的房子卖掉也许St. Joseph也帮忙了。我来到宗教用品小店--我路过多次,从来没进去过。问店员有没有St. Joseph雕像卖房用品包。 店员说,成套的都卖光了,只有单独的雕像。至于用品包里的说明,到网上一查就有了,所以买个雕像就够了。我买了雕像回来到网上一查,果真很多说明,还有很多怎么怎么灵验的反馈。怎么用这个雕像呢?要在卖房子的标志附近挖个小坑,比雕像深3寸,雕像很小,大概3-4寸高,然后把St. Joseph头朝下,脸朝路,埋起来。埋时候要祷告。祷告词也是固定的,每天都要祷告。等房子卖出去后记着把雕像挖出来,带回新家供着。 我都照做了,上市第二天中午我去把St. Joseph雕像埋在卖房牌子旁。祷告词还挺长的,我埋完雕像拿着打印出来的祷告词念了一遍。那天下午中介就打电话告诉我,有人来看房啦!耶!没准还真灵啊! 可是我没能做到每天祷告,没这习惯。我要看看St. Joseph是否真的帮忙。。。
PRAYER TO SAINT JOSEPH FOR SELLING A HOUSE O, Saint Joseph, you who taught our Lord the carpenter's trade, and saw to it that he was always properly housed, hear my earnest plea.
I want you to help me now as you helped your foster-child Jesus, and as you have helped many others in the matter of housing.
I wish to sell this [house/property] quickly, easily, and profitably and I implore you to grant my wish by bringing me a good buyer, one who is eager, compliant, and honest, and by letting nothing impede the rapid conclusion of the sale.
Dear Saint Joseph, I know you would do this for me out of the goodness of your heart and in your own good time, but my need is very great now and so I must make you hurry on my behalf.
Saint Joseph, I am going to place you in a difficult position with your head in darkness and you will suffer as our Lord suffered, until this [house/property] is sold.
Then, Saint Joseph, i swear before the cross and God Almighty, that i will redeem you and you will receive my gratitude and a place of honour in my home.
Amen. |
