I for as long as I can remember have had a fondness and devotion to the Souls in purgatory. Nearly all my rosaries I have said have been for them. There are other devotions in the Church, like praying for the sick, clergy, those who suffer from addiction etc. I dont want to feel like I might be “Hoarding” graces by offering God acts of penance, sacrifice and the rosary only for those in Purgatory. I do know its not intrinsically bad but I feel like Catholics ideally should be versatile in their prayers. Perhaps Im wrong there. I don’t even know exactly why I love the souls in Purgatory so, maybe its because I can hope and have faith that if I do enter it I will be prayed for since many in Purgatory stay for a very long time because they are forgotten by their family, and friends. And I do pray for others and offer prayers for other things and people but i’d say 95% of the time Im praying for the dead.
