Hello Everyone,
This post title and contents comes from the U.P. Catholic (Friday, February 6, 2015). May these words be of inspiration, hope, and joy to all of us of all faiths and denominations, that we may live in peace and oneness in our most merciful and gentle Lord and Savior.
Popes, saints and seers on the Rosary.
David stood against Goliath with a slingshot and five smooth stones. Catholics face the devil armed with 59 beads on a string. (Scoffers didn't think much of David's chances either).
Yet many, including saints and popes, have testified what a powerful weapon the rosary is in the spiritual battle:
1. The rosary is the scourge of the devil. - Pope Adrian VI
2. There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the holy rosary. - Sister Lucia dos Santos, Fatima seer.
3. The rosary is a powerful weapon to put the demons to flight and to keep oneself from sin.... If you desire peace in your hearts, in your homes, and in your country, assemble each evening to recite the rosary. - Pope Pius XI
4. The rosary is the "weapon" for these times. - St. Padre Pio
5. The rosary is a prayer both so humble and simple and theologically rich in Biblical content, I beg you to pray it. - Pope St. John Paul II
6. The greatest method of praying is to pray the rosary. - St. Francis de Sales
7. The holy rosary is a powerful weapon. Use it with confidence and you'll be amazed at the results. - St. Josemaria Escriva
8. Give me an army saying the rosary and I will conquer the world. - Pope Blessed Pius IX
9. We put great confidence in the holy rosary for the healing of evils which afflict our times. - Pope Pius XI
10. Among all the devotions approved by the Church, none has been so favored by so many miracles as the devotion of the most holy rosary. - Pope Blessed Pius IX
