The Rosary Experiment continues.

I am definitely experiencing a lot of spiritual warfare. It is quite obvious the devil does not want me to do this experiment. My husband and I just got in a little tift with a couple of people from our parish that is causing a lot of stress. It’s something that has been harboring for while now, and it just came to a head in the last 48 hours or so. We head a couple of ministries, so we have deal with a lot of people including the deacons and pastor very often. Sometimes in the midst of everyone’s busy-ness, things get dropped and people get short. Needless to say, we’re working it all out. Besides that, I’m feeling very overwhelmed that my four-year-old just seems to be completely resistant to be completely potty-trained. (He pees in the potty but won’t poo there, and we have to remind him every hour and a half to go to the bathroom.) It feels so huge and I’m frustrated that I can’t get him 100% potty-trained. To top it all off, I started having car issues a couple days ago. My blinkers don’t work! So we’re down to one car as mine is in the shop.

Well, that’s enough attention to the struggles…. as for the good things, I’m seeing in increased desire for prayer in my life. It’s incredible… I find myself praying all the time: when I’m putting my kids in the car or driving along, doing the dishes, or making dinner. My love for the Blessed Mother has developed and grown so much just in the last week. Just the thought of her intercession is so comforting and I have this trust in her like never before. I know she is taking care of me and my family. This feeling and knowledge is such a grace and blessing. Instead of putting off prayer til night, I’ve been finding myself saying my rosary earlier in the day, and it just makes such a huge difference in my day. And it’s only day 7!

I also wanted to let you all know as readers that I’m praying these rosaries for you too! So expect graces in your life!

God love you.
