Light

In November we received an email sent to the Children's Rosary:
We have joined as individuals and join in prayer every night from Houston. We missed praying with "Hartford" the last few days.

The note was referring to our View from Heaven map on our website. This displays groups that are actively meeting as blue twinkling lights. There is also a button one can click called "join in prayer". When a person hits the button a gold twinkling light flashes for 30 minutes. In the evening while saying prayers we routinely go to the Children's Rosary site and click "join in prayer" as we begin to pray. We see our little light flashing. Many times I had seen the light in Houston. Often I would mention the light to my kids as we prayed. We did not know who it was but we were grateful to see it. Then in November, we went on a trip to Alabama. Our light in Hartford was no longer there. We were surprised to receive the note from the person who was the light in Houston. We had treasured the light in Houston and apparently they had looked for our light too and when it was not there it prompted them to write. They did not know who it was but they simply wrote to say they missed it. 

The View from Heaven map is a simple way we have chosen to display prayers being said around the world. It allows a single soul to begin praying and join in prayer with Children's Rosary groups praying or other individual people praying. Sometimes the View from Heaven is dark. A person clicks on the button and begins to pray. They are but one light. But that one light transforms the whole view of the world. Immediately a person looking at the image is drawn to that region of the world where there is one person or family praying. One does not need 1,000 lights to transform the View from Heaven. It takes only one. It is a joy to see more lights but even just one is sufficient to bring joy to another person visiting the site. It was our one missing light in Hartford that brought the email inquiring as to where it had gone. It is an encouraging thought to contemplate. Last night when our family began to pray we added our light. We saw Houston flashing but we had a surprise there was another light in the Virginia region. We did not know who it was but we were grateful to unify prayers with them. We have included a screen shot of the map last night with our three lights visible. Consider visiting our site and adding your light. If you find the map dark, add your light. Trust that it will make a difference to another soul. We will look for it.
