This prayer is very simple and very powerful.  This prayer is also for everyone and brings great blessings.  I had not yet converted to Catholicism when I began to pray the Rosary.  Make a spiritual investment in yourself that you will not regret and set aside a quiet half hour each day to pray this simple prayer.  I know many fear praying the Rosary, feeling that it somehow gives undue attention to Mary.  I see it very simply:  Most people have had the experience of asking friends to pray for them when times are difficult.  What greater friend could there be than a human so very close to Jesus – His mother?  Mary will always lead you closer to Jesus and the Father.   All that is needed is a desire to grow closer to God and good intentions.  God will make up for anything you lack as the following dream excerpt will show:

“…I found myself on a street at a table because Mary, the Mother of God, had called me to a meeting.  Mary and I were discussing many things, but the only thing I remember is the last thing I asked her, which was “Is it okay to say my Rosary while doing other things?”  She said “Yes, but you do tend to rush a bit.  It would be better if you slowed and concentrated on the mysteries a bit more.”  (I have to interject here to say that I cannot convey just how gracious she is and how what she said was such a gentle understatement of the truth.  I initially used to speed-say the Rosary, because I wasn’t yet Catholic and I did not even know you were supposed to contemplate the mysteries!  I was teaching myself as I went).
