Pray in a special way. Offer your mortifications.

The liberals have sensed that the Holy Father is weak right now and they are attacking.

Bishops in Austria have risen up against the appointment of a bishop.

Several bishops have issued decisions or statements in some way related to the older form of Holy Mass.  For example, the Cardinal in Manila put out an insulting set of "guidelines".  The Cardinal of Westminster stuck his thumb in the eye of the LMS. 

Sundry leftist wonks have had op-ed pieces in the secular and Catholic press whining and wringing their hands about the SSPX and now liberal priests who habitually let those wonks think for them, are now feeding the trash they swallowed to their flocks.

I made this observation a while back: the attacks on the Holy Father are going to increase and descend in viciousness.

Pray for the Holy Father.

Ask God, if it is His will, to let you bear some of the burden of suffering.

Offer some penances, prayers, fasting or alms as you pray for our Holy Father.

Ask the holy guardian angels of those who are attacking the Holy Father and his vision for the Church, to help the Holy Spirit open their hearts.

Pray that Pope Benedict will be given the strength to make changes around himself.

Pray that he will, if need be, change those whom he, with trust, chose to cooperate in his heavy mandate.
