		<description><![CDATA[Today's rosary meditation is the Fifth Glorious Mystery -- The Coronation of Mary.  In this decade we see Mary awarded the honor of Queen of Heaven for having wholeheartedly accept God's call.  This is Her rightful place for having faith  is God's plan in The Annunciation, spreading the joy of God in The Visitation, giving birth to Jesus, and ultimately accepting the sorrow of His crucifixion and death.  Mary is now in Heaven and amplifies and purifies our prayers and presents them to Her son, Jesus Christ.  Mary's coronation gives Her many titles -- Queen of Peace, Queen of Angels, Queen of Saints, and Queen of the Rosary.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Almost a year ago a visitor left a comment mentioning the website "Come Pray the Rosary" (thanks Jack!).  This website is a perpetual, online Rosary prayer session with others around the world.  The prayer is set to video of various holy places and works of religious art.  You can also leave prayer intentions if you like.  You can pray alone and start at the beginning of a mystery instead of joining a mystery already in progress.  I know that sometimes we all need a little "kick" to start praying and that is what this site offers.  It may sound silly, but sometimes a voice set to a little video is the catalyst I need to get in that praying mood.  Guided rosary prayer also helps us focus our minds since they have a tendency to wonder when we pray silently by ourselves (or at least I suffer from this at times).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today's rosary meditation focuses on the Fourth Sorrowful Mystery -- Jesus Carries His Cross.  This mystery encapsulates many of the Stations of the Cross.  We see Jesus take up the cross, fall repeatedly, meet the mourning women, be stripped of his garments, and nailed to the cross.  Like the other Sorrowful Mysteries, Jesus carrying His cross teaches us about the nature of suffering and that we are called to love God and do His Will despite any suffering we may encounter in our lives.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This rosary meditation focuses on the Third Sorrowful Mystery -- The Crowning of Thorns.  The Roman soldiers mocked Jesus by dressing Him in royal purple and crowning Him with thorns (Mk. 15:17).  They then mocked Him and pretended to pay Him homage (Mk. 15:19).  Would the soldiers have acted so cavalier and arrogant if they truly understood who it was they were mocking?  While we are not as brazen as those soldiers, we often mock Jesus by giving lip service to our faith.  Instead of faithfully following Jesus, we too often dishonor Him by putting the fleeting treasures of this life in front of the treasures waiting for us in Heaven.  Particularly in this time of Lent we must make a sincere effort to put Jesus first in our lives and honor Him the way He deserves.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This rosary meditation focuses on The Second Glorious Mystery -- The Ascension.  After rising from the dead in the First Glorious Mystery, Jesus physically ascended into Heaven.  We profess this every time we recite the Apostle's Creed -- "On the third day He rose again;  He ascended into Heaven,  He is seated at the right hand of the Father, and He will come again to judge the living and the dead."  We must remember that ultimately we will have to account for our thoughts, words, and actions in front of Jesus who reigns in Heaven.  However, the Church gives us tools that allow us to remain close to God and correct our faults before facing our final judgment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This year Advent feels like it is one week longer.  In the past week I've gone to a 50th wedding anniversary, a wedding, and had a great time with my wife's family for Thanksgiving.  I've spent a lot of time talking to friends and family at the various events.  At the anniversary, my cousin and I talked about prayer and the rosary.  We touched on many ideas and I can't go into detail on all of them in this post (but I will probably bring them up in the future).  However, there was one rosary prayer of her's that I found particularly interesting that seemed relevant to Advent and preparing our souls for the Lord.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today's rosary meditation focuses on The Fifth Joyful Mystery -- The Finding of Jesus in the Temple.  When returning from a festival in Jerusalem, Mary and Joseph noticed that Jesus was not in the caravan.  They went back to Jerusalem and searched for Jesus for three days before finding Him in the temple talking to the elders.  When Mary said that she and Joseph had been searching for Him in sorrow, Jesus responded, "Why did you search for me?  Did you not know I had to be in My Father's house?" (Lk. 2:49).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the Fourth Glorious Mystery of the holy rosary we meditate and pray on Mary's Assumption into Heaven.  Having accepted God's plan in the Annunciation, Mary was honored by being assumed, body and soul, into God's kingdom.  However, Her work was far from over as She now takes the role of our guide and spiritual mentor.  She is always trying to bring us closer to Her son, Jesus Christ.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This rosary meditation focuses on The First Luminous Mystery -- Jesus' Baptism in the Jordan.  In this mystery we see Jesus transforming Baptism from being a purely symbolic act of renewal to an actual gift of the Holy Spirit that cleanses our soul of original sin.  For this mystery I'm going to focus on the central message of John the Baptist -- a call to repentance.  While John is usually associated with Baptism (hence his title), his ministry really focuses on the Sacrament of Confession.  He preached that we prepare ourselves to fully receive God when we approach Him with a repentant heart.  These two sacraments really go hand-in-hand in that they both center around the Holy Spirit cleansing our soul of the effects of sin.]]></description>

There His clothes turned dazzling white and Moses and Elijah appeared with Him.  Then a voice came from the clouds saying, "This is my chosen Son; listen to Him."]]></description>
