When I Pray the Rosary

I take Mary's hand. I ask her to pray with me and for me. I ask her to lead me to her Son. I ask her to take my petitions, prayers, worries and fears to Jesus for me.

I ask her to journey with me as I remember His joys that became her joys, His ordinary that was extraordinary, His sorrows that pierced her heart and His glory in which she shared.

I know I do not pray alone. I know my prayers are heard. I know my prayers are answered in ways that I cannot even conceived.

When I pray the Rosary I find peace.
