The Holy Rosary
How Should We Say the Rosary
Properly! That is, slowly with careful pronunciation
of the prayers and mysteries which are announced before each decade.
Devoutly! Not only with the lips, but also with the
heart. More particularly we ought to meditate upon the mysteries that come
before us: thus at the Joyful Mysteries we should think of the infinite love
of God to men and on His humiliation for us, thanking Him, and promising our
love to Him in return; at the Sorrowful Mysteries we should have compassion on
our Savior suffering for us, and we should, from the heart hate our sins which
were the cause of His sufferings, and make the most earnest resolution to sin
no more in the future; at the Glorious Mysteries we should remember the glory
which awaits us also if we follow Jesus and Mary. Jesus’ life is summed up
in the Crib, the Cross and the Crown of Glory. Ours will be the same if we
follow Jesus.
