eRosary

This morning something amazing happened. I have been praying the rosary novena because i have complicated issues in my life and i really need God's guidance and help. I lost my engagement ring last year after placing it on the coffee table thinking i had lost it forever as we had guest over and i figured someone put magazines or purses etc on top of it and it probably mistakedly ended up in the garbage forever. Yesterday, which happens to be 6 months after the loss, i thought about the ring out of no where. I thought tomorrow i'm going to clean the house and move the sofa and look for it. Then night came and prayed the rosary. I always keep my little blue rosary guide book with me when i pray. I finished praying the rosary, i put my blue book on my nightstand and the rosary on top of it. This morning my fiance got ready for work and i sat next to him as he walked over to my rosary and picked it up and kissed it. When he was about to put it back down we both looked perplexed at what was on top of my little blue rosary book. I thought that looks like my ring as he picked it up with a shocked look on his face. He turned the ring to me and i realized the was my engagement ring sitting on the little blue book. I am still so in awe, i had to tell someone to pass on how powerful the rosary is. So i hope you who reads this also gets signal graces to let you know God is listening even when we think no one hears us.

I had injured myself on April 21, 2002. A friend asked if I wanted to go to a place called Bayou Pigeon with him and his father. He told me that manyhave witnessed miracles there and that maybe I will have a miracle of healing happen to me if I go there with them. So, I said yes and had gone to with them. There used to be an old Catholic Church that once stood at that location and my friend told me that supposedly the blessed virgin Mary had appeared to the Priest there years ago. That same priest would go to that location every 1st Saturday of the month to pray the Rosary and several people around the Louisiana area heard about this. Therefore, many people would go to join this Priest in praying the Rosary. So I went with my friend and his father to this place to pray the Rosary on that Saturday morning. As we were praying the Rosary, I could smell a strong scent of Roses and a little later someone else interrupted the Rosary to tell everyone else that they could smell Roses as well. Everyone there confirmed that they could also smell the scent of Roses. Whats amazing is that there were no Roses anywhere nearby. Also, after the Rosary prayer had ended, a little old lady had given me a photo to look at that she had taken a month earlier at this same location where the old Catholic Church once stood. She told me that if I looked at the clouds in the photo that I'd be able to see an image of the virgin Mary. I didn't see an image of the blessed Virgin Mary in the clouds. However, while I was holding that photo, 7 small black crosses in the same shape as Jesus' cross appeared on the photo. My friend also witnessed these crosses appear on this photo while I was holding it. When I tell this to others, many don't believe me. But at least my friend and I know the truth.

A few years back, I was feeling dead and dry spiritually. I was trying to deepen and refresh my faith by different devotions, including regular recitation of the rosary. However, it felt more like a burden, and I was about to give it up. I prayed earnestly about it. The next Sunday at Church, I arrived early to recite it before mass. While reciting it, I was wrestling with the question of whether I should give up this devotion, and in fact all my devotions, feeling abandoned by God. As I turned the page to read about the next mystery, The priest began speaking, announcing it was Assumption Sunday (which I hadn't even known,) and then he went behind the altar as it wasn't time for Mass yet. I looked down on the page I had just turned, and it was the Assumption! The next morning, the TV was playing in the background, to the "Ellen Show." Jim Carrey was the guest, and he, of all people!, began talking about how at 10 years old he started praying the rosary and miracles happened in his life, and now he feels is life if divinely guided. OK, I got the message, continue praying the rosary! I stuck with it, and my faith has grown tremendously the last few years, and brought me such comfort and joy.

Our Rosary Miracle...It was a Friday night and I was praying the rosary. I prayed and asked Mary, Joseph, and Jesus to keep my daughter close to the faith and not allow her to go astray. I also prayed for a sign that I was on the right track as far as my life was going and the direction that I was headed in. While praying the rosary I fell asleep. As a result I dropped my rosary into the floor. In the morning my daughter found my rosary she picked it up and started to pray and as she was praying she heard a loud male voice! The voice said, "Mary is very proud of you for praying the rosary!" I was looking for my rosary and my husband told me that that our daughter found my rosary in the floor. I went back to her room to ask her where she placed my rosary. I asked where she put my rosary. My daughter said, " Mom can I ask you a question?" I replied, "Sure, what is it?" She told me about her experience earlier that morning and asked me who I thought was talking her. I replied, "It must be Jesus or God." She then asked me if Jesus or God had ever spoke to me. I replied, "No." She then further questioned me as to why not me but her? I replied, "Well, Jesus and God prefer to speak to the innocent who will listen." I then hugged and told her and told her how proud I was. Isn't this amazing? My daughters experience really inspired me. I find it so incredible how prayers are answered. This really renewed my faith in the power of prayer. The rosary is so powerful and comforting.
