The Miracle of Prayer
This site will contain my prayer meditations. In particular I focus on rosary meditation and I will share my thoughts for each decade. I will also discuss the power and importance of prayer and the freedom that comes from trying to live a spiritual lifestyle.
First, let me introduce myself. I am not a priest, nun, or pastor. I am a software engineer living in San Francisco. I enjoy watching television, browsing the internet, reading books, playing hockey, and discovering new technology. Most people would consider me a pretty normal person. About a year and a half ago I traded in my twenty-minute commute to work for a two-hour one when I changed jobs. At first I tried to pass the time listening to the usual FM music, AM talk, and occasional audio book. However, I always felt like I was wasting my time on my commute and there were other things I could do that would be more productive.
It was in my two-hour commutes that I started praying the rosary regularly. I was already in the habit of praying the rosary but it was only about once a week. With such infrequent prayer I could never seem to gain any momentum to dive deeper and truly contemplate the meanings behind my words. Now I pray anywhere from one mystery to all four of them on my daily commute. I have found that my rosary meditation centers me and gives me the strength to face my everyday challenges. It has been my spiritual exercise and I’ve never felt more fit.
I hope I can share my enthusism over prayer, the rosary, meditation, and faith. It has been a great, transforming factor in my life and I hope that it can be one in yours as well.
