We must pray for our world! The news from around the world on any given day can be distressing and depressing. And it can tempt us to give in to feelings of despondency.
Yet again it’s another reason to pray even harder for when things seem to be so bad, so depressing [and headlines of affairs in the Church don’t help] then where else is there to go?
As President Abraham Lincoln once said:
“I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had no where else to go. My own wisdom and that of all about me seemed insufficient for that day.”
October – the month of the Holy Rosary is upon us. Let us rededicate ourselves to a daily recitation of the rosary. Mary Immaculate will triumph no matter how bleak the news.
