Wig’s Word of God Today 12-22-2010
For He has looked upon His handmaid’s lowliness; behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed. The Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is His name. Luke 1: 48-49
1 Samuel 1:24-28, 1 Samuel 2:1, 4-5, 6-7, 8abcd & Luke 1:46-56
Mary’s visitation to her cousin Elizabeth’s continues with Mary sharing her soul in the passionate canticle known as the “Magnificat.” And Mary said: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior.” Luke 1:47-46 Once again the lowly are lifted to heights only granted by God and the beginning of a prayer that would become a faithful daily occurrence for countless people each and every day; “The Rosary,” is born (so to speak). The Mother of our Lord gave birth to a prayer from her uttering the words, ” from now on will all ages call me blessed.” Many people miss understand why “people” not just Catholics “pray” the Rosary. The prayer is now prayed by Protestants too and I recently learned from a rosary-praying protestant he traveled to Medjugorje to pray the rosary there at a known location for “Marian Visions.”
Whether you pray the Rosary or not, I respect each and every one of your decisions to pray in the way you feel your Lord and Savior deserves. The Rosary is a prayer of comfort, peace and Glory to God allowing a reawakening of the soul to listen to His Will and share your concerns with God for healing, guidance and protection. Whatever your prayer preference is, the purpose of all prayer is to praise and Glorify the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and Rosary praying people do this and much, much more. So the next time you see a Rosary hanging from a rear-view mirror or see someone praying the Rosary, know the beads and Cross represent the Glorification of God in all things. The Rosary has an amazing history and one worth researching to learn more why so many people pray this historical psalm of love to God.
And so we pray: Dear Father, we pray today in thanksgiving for allowing people to understand a prayer of the one You chose to carry Your Son. Give humanity Your guidance to celebrate all prayers to You Father for the Glorification of all good things that come from You. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,
