Guardian Angel II 12
The Guardian Angel tells our girl to pray the rosary. The Rosary is a devotion that meditates on the mysteries of the life of Christ. It is almost like the Gospel abridged. It is a Marian prayer, and it is as if when we pray, she holds our hand and shows us her son. We able to look at Jesus with the guidance in prayer of the mother who was there, who bore, loved and raised him - the mother He created for Himself.
The word rosary comes from Latin and means a garland of roses. Roses especially are known to be Mary's flower. Throughout Church history, the saints and popes could not seem to say enough about the rosary - Pope St. John Paul II called it his favorite prayer, and said "The Rosary is a prayer both so humble and simple and so theologically rich in Biblical content. I beg you to pray it." And Pope St. Pius X said, "The Rosary is the most beautiful and most rich in graces of all prayers; it is the prayer that touches most the Heart of the Mother of God. . . and if you wish peace to reign in your homes, recite the family Rosary."
