At the close of 2014 there is much to be thankful for. This year has brought many new Children's Rosary groups sprinkled across the globe. Each one a special gift from Our Lord. There is also celebration of groups that are now reaching their one and two year anniversaries and some even longer. There has been the taste of pure joy and the reality of great suffering. Pope Francis says it well in his Apostolic Exhortion Evangell Gaudium “No one is excluded from the joy brought by the Lord. The Lord does not disappoint those who take this risk; whenever we take a step towards Jesus, we come to realize that He is already there, waiting for us with open arms."
We should not be afraid of our weaknesses and doubt when we are trying to help Him. It is not always easy to take a chance such as starting a Children's Rosary prayer group or continuing a group when many challenges arrise. Yet Pope Francis reminds us to have confidence in the Lord and realize that when we are weak and dependent on the Lord this is when He can work most perfectly. Much like a child who depends entirely on his or her parents. Pope Francis goes on to say, "Nobody can go off to battle without confidence, we have already lost half the battle and we bury our talents. While painfully aware of our own frailties, we have to march on without giving in, keeping in mind what the Lord said to Saint Paul: "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness" (2Cor 12:9).
Over the next week we are blessed to have many Children's Rosary groups meeting. These groups cover each one of us in a blanket of prayers.
