STOP, Don’t Pray the Rosary Today Unless You See This Revelation

Contemplating Jesus

“The recitation of the rosary allows us to fix our gaze and our hearts upon Jesus, just like his Mother, the supreme model of contemplation of the Son,” Benedict XVI said in 2010 at the Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima. “Meditating upon the joyful, luminous, sorrowful and glorious mysteries as we pray our Hail Marys, let us reflect upon the interior mystery of Jesus, from the Incarnation, through the Cross, to the glory of the Resurrection; let us contemplate the intimate participation of Mary in the mystery of our life in Christ today, a life which is also made up of joy and sorrow, of darkness and light, of fear and hope.

Grace invades our hearts, provoking a wish for an incisive and evangelical change of life so that we can say with Saint Paul: For me to live is Christ (Phil 1:21) in a communion of life and destiny with Christ.”
