    Presence of God … clutching the crucifix of the Rosary and gazing upon it. “Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy upon me, a sinner. Jesus, meek and humble of heart, make my heart like unto thine. O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. 🕊️

      It’s an amazing gift from Heaven and He has called you by name. Stick with it, even when it becomes difficult. You will be tempted by the demons to quit. Stay strong because our Mother is calling you to walk with her to be closer to our Lord and Savior.

    My dad always said I was on earth by the grace of God; on loan from Him. Dad further said he was grateful for the responsibility of keeping a child of Jesus safe by calling upon the Holy Spirit's assistance. What beautiful words to hear while growing up ...♡

  • @kathleenthompson3140
    @kathleenthompson3140 4 дня назад +15

    I have always loved the Rosary but I am learning I could pray it so much better. I am excited to practice the presence of God. The phone analogy is simple to understand and although God has made Himself known to me in various ways with and without a sacrament involved, I don't think I have heard Him say hello. Probably because I dial and start talking without ceasing. As I learn to practice His presence, I hope to hear and recognize the special hello he says to me .😊

    Have started this journey today (January 05, 2024 - Solemnity of the Epiphany) and am looking forward to growing in my love for the Rosary and thus getting closer to the Most Holy Trinity and Our Blessed Mother.
    I am a cradle Catholic and grew up praying the Rosary with my family. As kids, we prayed with our church family during the month of May. Even after I married and my daughters were born, we were pretty consistent praying the Rosary. Sadly, not so in the past few years due to several complications in our lives. Whenever I try to pray the Rosary, it is a struggle with too many distractions. Listening today to Fr. Mark-Mary and Mr. Mike in the 3 intro podcasts/video has made me excited to be on this journey and my sincere prayer and hope is that this excitement does not wane and that I will try my best to be consistent. I have also done Day 1 today.
    Thank you Fr. Mark-Mary and Fr. Mike for inviting us on this journey.
    God bless both of you and the entire Ascension team.

    Wow. Turned my life over to God when I was 15, a million youth group hours, completed 4 years of Evangelical Christian University, then ran away from my faith after the Lord disappointed me -- and I have *never* heard anyone describe prayer this way. No one has ever told me how to look at God, who is always looking at us. Thank you, Father Mark-Mary. Poco a poco, friends. Here for the year.

    So beautiful!! I love how he explains how to raise our hearts and minds to God in prayer, that it's like waiting for a person to say hello when we call them instead of starting to talk immediately. Also, how we're safe in the garden with Mary where the walls are high and the anxieties of the world can't get in, and we can be filled with peace.

    Thank you Father! You are right it feels a bit awkward to start, I have been away from intentional daily prayer for several months and I've struggled a little with it since my mom passed in 2022... My parents were giants and their faith and my faith were so intertwined. I feel like God is calling me back into a deeper relationship and I have the desire for it as well. Last year the Theotokos / Blessed Mother really stepped in at times to help me and I desire to have a clearer understanding of how to pray the rosary. This feels like perfect timing.
    God bless you Father! 🙏🏻
