Rosary Reflection - Rosary Is the Book of the Blind

  (Photo©Michael Seagriff) "The rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world  has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more  satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow  of this world, and open on the substance of the next.  The power of the  rosary is beyond description."                                                            (Venerable Fulton J. Sheen)

The Rosary - Make It Part of Your Arsenal

( Image Source )   Of all the devotions to Mary, the rosary is the best.   In fact, as a means of holiness, apart from the Mass and the sacraments, there is nothing more powerful than the rosary…That is because the rosary keeps before me the great truths of the Catholic religion.   Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S.

Make Present An Event In Salvation History

Image
(Photo©Michael Seagriff" Praying the rosary with Mary is a memorial – making present in our own time an event in salvation history. By mediating on the mysteries of the Rosary, Mary brings that event to us, so we can experience its power and grace.   Mary draws us to her Son.   Use your imagination. Meditate on the mysteries.   It will help you grow in your relationship with Jesus.   We are with Him and with Mary in these events. Father George P. Schommer, O.P.
