A deeper way to pray the Rosary. A way that can lead to a deeper love and devotion to Mary, and a better following of Jesus. If you desire to lead a better life, a holy life, this method of prayer and meditation can help. I wrote this book to combat the blind, bland, thoughtless repetition of words. Ending the rosary just as empty as when you started. The Rosary is a prayer of great power and love. The compete Rosary is a celebration of the lives of Jesus and Mary. A catechism of sorts. You will derive great benefit from the Rosary if you meditate on the mysteries, and see if your life reflects the lessons they teach. Are you following Jesus? To follow Jesus better, I think about Mary. How did she live her life? What is perfect humility like? I find it easier to imitate her complete, instantaneous and unquestioning acceptance of Gods' will, (sort of), then to understand the mind of the Son of God. The Rosary, said daily and devoutly, will make you holy. For you cannot continue living a life of selfishness and sin when you pray this prayer. It is also hoped that developing a deeper devotion to the Rosary, and the Blessed Mother, will help to spread that devotion to those who do not yet know the peace and power of the Rosary, especially among the young. For if the young are not strong in faith and love, then our faith dies. The Rosary is the teacher and anchor of strong faith and morals. This is the first book in, what I hope will be, a series of “Hard Way” books. Each stressing a different aspect of spiritual life. I hope you will join me on this journey to holiness. May it please our Mother Mary, and in union with the will of Jesus, that this work bears fruit.
