Day 220: Lingering in the Words

Hi, I'm Father Mark Mary with Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, and this is the Rosary in a Year podcast, where through prayer and meditation, the Rosary brings us deeper into a relationship with Jesus and Mary and becomes a source of grace for the whole world.

The Rosary in a Year is brought to you by Ascension.

This is day 220.

All right, today we will be praying the third and fourth joyful mysteries, the nativity, and the presentation of our Lord in the temple.

And this will be day two of the five days in which we are really committed to focusing on, praying with,

meditating upon the words of the prayers, of the Our Father, of the Hail Mary, glory be, and the fatim of prayer, at the service of really kind of practicing and really come to appreciate the words themselves.

Part of the genius of the rosary and the ways in which we repeat the prayers again and again is the way in which it can create space for a deeper meditation and contemplation upon the mysteries.

But we do also want to have some of the experience and the habit of praying with the words themselves, which can serve us and serve our prayer in different ways in different seasons of life.

So we're going to continue that journey today.

And we'll take a moment to just pray slowly, paying attention to each of the words, each of the intentions.

Like our Father, God has revealed himself as Father.

And the intentions.

Thy will be done.

Thy kingdom come.

Daily bread, deliver us.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

The third joyful mystery is the nativity.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.
