Feeling Out of Sorts? This Might Help
When life starts to weigh me down and feels off-center, I find that what helps me most is returning to contemplating the life of Jesus. But sometimes I get overwhelmed thinking about all the different events in his life, and I get paralyzed deciding where to begin reading the gospels. When that happens, I often simply pick up a rosary and begin praying the mysteries of Jesus’ life.
The rosary is simple.
The rosary is peaceful.
The rosary is soothing.
The rosary puts me in touch with Jesus.
Today is the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.
Maybe today you’re feeling out of sorts.
Maybe today you’re feeling paralyzed about how to begin bringing Jesus back into your life.
Maybe today the rosary can help you like it helps me and countless others.
The feel of the beads through your fingers, the gentle rhythm of the Hail Marys as you murmur them under your breath over and over, the images and sensations of the events of Jesus’ life running through your mind–praying the rosary brings us back to Jesus, especially when life seems chaotic or confusing.
Maybe the rosary is just what we need today.
