Prayers Given to Us to Change the World and Change the World by Changing Ourselves: The Holy Rosary, The Rosary of Sorrow, The Chaplet of Mercy and Ot

By Richard Dole

One may have good intentions and understand what it means to live a chaste and spiritually healthy life and yet find oneself repeatedly falling short. One reason for this may be that an individual may easily underestimate the reality of what it takes to shoulder their cross daily and follow Him. Pride tells one that this can be done with relative ease, while fear and shame convince one that it is too hard so why try.The greatest gift one can have in striving to follow Christ is a relationship with Him and a mode of meditation and prayer by which to listen to Him and speak with Him. Like all children we tend to be better at talking than listening. This may be one of the reasons why some of us are slower to learn than others. The western tradition is very rich in ways with which to pray and meditate. It has puzzled me that so many take up eastern traditions while being entirely ignorant of the rich tradition of meditation and mysticism in Christianity. What follows are some powerful, meaningful and simple ways to tap into the needed power to effect change in oneself and overcome short comings. It is hoped that these tools of faith will help to make both your interior life and the world a better place.
