The article implies that saying the Rosary without fully meditation on the Mysteries is almost worthless. I find that VERY offensive. I say a Rosary daily while driving to work, and while driving…and not having any external material in front of you, it is difficult to specifically meditate on each mystery. Are my prayers worthless then? I find that disturbing.

If your prayers are to be more fully aligned to God’s will in your life, the no they aren’t worthless. If your prayers are for stuff to happen, then maybe

Amen. We need to proclaim the power of praying to Mary, the Hail Mary prayer, and the Rosary–all of which are so powerful in uniting us to Our Savior Jesus Christ.

I pray with Mary all the time… never to her

What A Saint Said
When St. Alphonsus of Liguori was already old, sick, and in a wheelchair, a lay brother used to wheel him around the cloister of his monastery in the evening so he could take some fresh air. Engaging the brother in conversation, St. Alphonsus asked him:
“Did you pray your rosary today?”
“I don’t remember,” the brother answered,
“Then, let us pray it now,” the Saint said.
“But you are already so tired. What difference does it make if we don’t pray the rosary for one day?” protested the brother.
St. Alphonsus answered: “If I did not pray my rosary for even one day, I would fear for my eternal salvation.”

Blessed Cardinal Newman said that no Catholic’s writing prejudiced him against the Catholic religion more than St Alphonsus Liguori … I’m kind of with him

I think in this 100 anniversary year of Fatima we will see an increase in people praying to Mary to ask for her intercession.👍
 
The power of one Rosary = no where near the power of one Our Father, but nice nonetheless
 
I recently started praying the rosary daily, I can scarcely believe the the changes it’s made in my life. I have no intention to stop, ever. 😃

I’ve upped my game since reading this article, trying to do more than one a day, is anyone else?

My prayer life has been increasingly expanding. Years ago, I used to just pray that I would pray more. Fast forward, this Lent, I prayed the Rosary 4-5 times a week. Then work life got overwhelming and it went back down again to only once a week. I found I missed it so much… almost as if I wasn’t eating or drinking…

Imagine if the whole world prayed the Rosary just once, today, what graces God would provide all of us!
