Recently I bough a miraculous medal as advised by an online friend in the forum.
But is it necessary that I should wear the miraculous medal?I wear a rosary usually.
Dont actually can think of a way to wear miraculous medal as I already wear a rosary(May sound silly though)I keep it in my wallet.And I generally carry it with me when ever I go out of my room.
Also before I start wearing should I get that blessed by a priest?
The actual question would be keeping miraculous medal in the wallet and carrying it with me lets say for about 10 hrs every day will be equivalent to wearing it?
(I know The question sounds a bit stupid )
Here is some important info about the Miraculous Medal, one of Mother Theresa’s
favorites.
This is from the mother of Jesus spoken to sister Catherine Laboure 1830:
“Have a medal struck… All who wear it will receive GREAT graces; they should wear it
around the neck. GRACES will ABOUND for persons who wear it with CONFIDENCE.”
“Great graces are often attached to what seems trifling.” St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
“The devotions we practice in honor of the glorious Virgin Mary, however trifling they be,
are very pleasing to her divine Son, …” St. Teresa of Jesus
During this apparition, Mary’s hands had 3 rings on each finger. Each ring gave off
rays of colored light. A few rings did not. Mary said that the lights radiating from
the rings are graces that people ASK for. The rings that didn’t radiate she said
were graces not given because they were NOT asked for.
St. Paul said that our battle is against Principalities and Powers, i.e. Demons.
It is blessed. The devil hates blessed objects. Keep it on all all times.
Wear her medal in her honor because the devil can’t stand her either.
Trust her, it works. She is the mother of God. Would she lie?
She wants you to wear it. It is her gift. She promised and she will diliver.
Mary promised GREAT and ABUNDANT graces, but we must ask for them.
Here is a story to go with this.

The Chapel of the Miraculous Medal in Paris
The following testimony was originally was told to me, by a sister from the Daughters of Charity a few years ago. I have recently amended the account of the testimony, when some new facts came to light. (I thank my both my original source, and the more recent source of this information.)
A mother from Brazil took her dying daughter on a trip to Paris, to visit the chapel where the apparitions of the Miraculous Medal occurred in 1830. When they arrived at the chapel, they saw a nun who was arranging flowers on the sanctuary. The mother asked her if it would be possible for her daughter to touch the chair, that our Lady had sat on while talking to Saint Catherine Labouré during one of the visions. The nun said that it was not allowed. She then went into the back room to get some more flowers. The area where the chair was, had been roped off. The mother thought to herself, “I did not come all this way, just to look at the chair.” She told her daughter to get down on the floor, work her way on her stomach under the rope, move up and quickly touch the chair and then come back. To the mother’s distress the little girl went up to the chair, and placed her head upon it, and would not come back for quite a while despite her mother’s pleading. The mother was worried that the nun would come back and that they would get into trouble. Eventually the little girl came back, and the mother asked her why she had done this. Her reply was “I am sorry mummy, but the lady told me to rest my head on her lap”. After this they returned to Brazil on the plane. Soon after their return to Brazil doctors found that the child was fully healed.
