Rosary Meditations for Parents and Children
5. Children are laughed at for praying and for saying grace. Many children
showing kindness and being nice to each other are made fun of.
God wants us to be loving.
6. Jesus wants us to be tender, kind, and loving. The only way to heaven is
to love God and to love one another.
7. How cold the world is this day. In order to survive, children are being
taught to be cold in their hearts. Children’s prayers are so powerful. We
join together as children in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. We are
praying for special graces from God. We want to be closer to Him. We
want to be children of the light. We want to shine in the darkness in the
schools. We want to tell the children of America about the God we love.
8. Let us look at the crowned head of Jesus and the face covered with
wounds. See His blood. Look at His body, bloodied and bruised. When
we are ridiculed and treated unkindly, we must go to His Heart. We
must pray for the person that is treating us with cruelty.
9. We have a loving Mother that is forever with us. We are never alone,
not for one moment. Jesus is with us. He is guarding our ways and
Mary is guarding her little children of light.
10. Song: Little Child
Jesus Carries His Cross
1. A good way to meditate on the Passion is to make the Stations of the
Cross. As we stand at the first station, we see how the men around
Jesus shouted ugly words at Jesus. They cried out, “…‘Crucify him!’”
(Mk. 15:13) We are ridiculed today for being close to Jesus. Jesus
stood. He took all the torture. He is the Almighty God. He suffered
for love of us.
2. Jesus is God. He is love. They gave Him a heavy cross that they put on
His back.
3. He fell to the ground. His head hit the ground. The cross was on His
back. Many times we have to suffer. It is in suffering that we are drawn
closer to Jesus.
4. See Jesus and Mary as They look into each other’s faces on the way to
Calvary. His eyes met her eyes. He saw her sad face covered with tears.
She saw His bruised face covered with blood. Jesus and Mary love us so
much. They walked this brutal walk to the Crucifixion. They walk with
us today. We are never alone. They are always with us. Their Hearts
are filled with love.
5. When we are ridiculed, let us remember how Jesus was treated.
