Gluttony

Eternal God
Forgive me for Gluttony or an excessive desire for food or drink
Please bring in the virtue of temperance over me
which enables me to control my natural appetite for sensual pleasure
to have moderation or self-restrain of taking food or drink
I ask this in the name of Father Christ
Amen

Our Eternal Father who art in heaven hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, Amen

Hail Mother Mary full of grace, the Lord Eternal God is with you, blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Father Christ

Holy Mother Mary, mother of our Lord Eternal God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Glory be to the Eternal Father, the Eternal Son, the Eternal Holy Spirit, as it 
was in the beginning is now and ever will be world without end, Amen. 1022017
