I need to share my Rosary experience from today

[KevinH83]

Hello all,

I need to share this and this seems like a good place.

I am Catholic through and through and like a lot of Catholics I have fallen in the path more than once. I am recovering from my latest fall and am glad to say that confession and mass are on the table tomorrow.

I am going through some rough times right now and have been holding everything in. I have a tendency to not ask for help; from people and at times even the Father himself. (because I am an idiot.) I am not sure why I get this way; I still pray for others just not myself.

Well this week I had a major breakdown. completely stressed out to the point where sleep was all I wanted yet difficult. I haven’t been able to eat. Finally last night I decided that what happens happens and I put my total faith in God to get me through. I started to lose sight of this today at work as a meeting that I was afraid was going to come with a pink slip approached. I felt my self slipping so I reached for my Rosary and started to pray. I work in a call center and do have to take calls at times. I had just finished my 6th or 7th decade and completed the prayers. I made the sign of the cross and before I kissed the crucifix I thought in silent prayer it’s in your hands now. The second I kissed the cross i got a beep telling me I had a call I began speaking to a woman who gave me her name. her last name was Christ. (Pronounced Krist) I was floored I generally only speak to certain people on calls yet today a woman with the last name Christ; whom had never called our line before calls at the precise moment I kiss the cross after asking for God’s hand.

I don’t even know how to take it. I am still ready to burst into tears as I think about. I know this may sound stupid to some but this was a game changer for me. I was still nervous but I had faith more than ever.

And now as I sit here typing this I not only still have my job I was able to make strides toward getting out from under my student loan debt that has had me barely making ends meet.

I had to share this with someone out there.

Thanks for reading,
May the love of God be with you always,

Kevin

Oh yes, God give these consolations a lot when you reach out to Him. It’s always such a sense of relief when I get those.

The Blessed Mother always points to her Son Jesus.

Happy Assumption Day! It’s kind of interesting, that this grace came to you through the Rosary on one of Mary’s great days.

Anyway, I’ll pray for you so your faith can continue.

Kevin I enjoyed your story. The Rosary is a powerful prayer. I am a convert to the Church and attended Mass for a couple years before I started RCIA. About a year before I came into the Church I wanted to start praying the Rosary, but I had a lot of issues in my life that made me feel like I wasn’t in a state spiritually to do it. Then one day I did it and my life changed that very day. When I tell people this story I tell them it wasn’t a gradual process, but it happened that very day. The wonderful thing about all of this is that I knew at that moment it was because of the Rosary. I’ve prayed it every day since. Pray the Rosary everyday. God bless.
