Falling asleep while praying

[walnutleviosa]

I’m sure this happens to some of us. I feel guilty when it happens but somehow happy when I awake with my rosary still in my hands.

I think it’s the best way to fall asleep… Despite my guilt.

How do you feel?

A Catholic saint said that our guardian angels finish the unsaid decades.

I have done this many times, Also. I remember way back in the 50s Tab Hunter, an actor, said the same thing to a fan. He said what better way to fall asleep with the Blessed Mother` name on your lips.

I have done this many times, also. I remember reading an item in a magazine when Tab Hunter, an actor back in the 50s said that he often fell asleep while saying the rosary. He said what better way to fall asleep than with the Blessed Mother`s name on your lips.

Haha…I suppose you could just call it, ‘praying as you fall asleep,’ so it doesn’t sound too bad.

I fall asleep often while praying the rosary. It’s very comforting and keeps away bad thoughts/nightmares.

I did it all the time during my pregnancies. Insomnia was a constant struggle and praying soothed me.
