Much apologies for being late on another post, it really isn’t because I’m lazy or I forget. Honestly, I just don’t want to post something I haven’t put my all into.
But anyways, I’ve been so tired lately. Restless, you could say. You know how the saying goes, “Restless until I rest in You”. I really can affirm that especially in my service, family, friends etc etc…
Let’s take it a step further. Ever heard of the 15 Promises of the Rosary? Intriguing isn’t it?! I’ll leave it to you to look it up. Though it may not be new to some, to me its something that really has changed my relationship with Mama Mary.
With that said, I find it hard to end my day without the rosary. I think that’s something we tend to forget sometimes...that we seek the intercessions of the Saints, so lets not forget Mama Mary can do the same. Read those 15 promises. Devote yourself. Seriously, IT’S SO SIMPLE, and doesn’t even take more than an hour if you are in a hurry.
I really remember early early Monday morning. Like 5am, I’ve been up all night, and super super tired. Yet…still couldn’t sleep. All that was going through my head was, you’re forgetting someone. Boom. I remembered the 15 promises. Boom. Prayed the rosary. Immediately I felt at ease…just peaceful.
‘Mary having co-operated in our redemption with so much glory to God and so much love for us, Our Lord ordained that no one shall obtain salvation except through her intercession.’
–St. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori
There it finally is. Late reflection, but something through my days that have really been special. No metaphors, no similes, just wanting to get closer to the Holy Family.
Lord, allow me to never forget Your presence. Make me humble enough to always seek the intercession of Your Holy Family in heaven. I seek to know Your will. Lord, I offer my life to You.
