<strong>Rosary</strong> <strong>Meditations</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Parents</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Children</strong><br />

The Crucifixion<br />

1. Song: See the Eyes that Look at Mary<br />

2. Song: Little Baby H<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> Feet<br />

3. The greatest act that we can per<strong>for</strong>m on this earth is the act <strong>of</strong> loving<br />

God. We were created to know, love, <strong>and</strong> serve God.<br />

4. The Holy Eucharist is His sacrament <strong>of</strong> greatest love. He gives Himself<br />

to us today in the Holy Eucharist.<br />

5. It is a great act <strong>of</strong> intimacy when divinity unites with humanity.<br />

6. Let us <strong>of</strong>fer ourselves as a sacrifice to the Father in the Mass united<br />

with Jesus. This is a most pleasing sacrifice <strong>of</strong>fered to the Father. Let us<br />

die to all <strong>of</strong> those things that are not like God.<br />

7. We should <strong>of</strong>fer everything we do everyday to the Father in the morning<br />

<strong>of</strong>fering. The morning <strong>of</strong>ferings are available in Appendix A <strong>of</strong> this<br />

book. Cards <strong>for</strong> adults <strong>and</strong> children are available from <strong>Shepherds</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Christ</strong> Ministries. We unite all <strong>of</strong> our actions all through the day with<br />

Jesus, in union with the Holy Sacrifice <strong>of</strong> the Mass being <strong>of</strong>fered<br />

throughout the world. This act magnifies everything that we do.<br />

8. The greatest act <strong>of</strong> love is when God gives Himself to man. I picture<br />

Him hanging on the cross. His face is covered with blood. His arms are<br />

spread wide open. This is the love that God has <strong>for</strong> us. He gave Himself<br />

as a sacrifice that we would partake in His life.<br />

9. The price that He paid is His life that we would share in His divine life.<br />

How do we treasure the gift that is given to us by our beloved God?<br />

10. He was taken down from the cross. His body touched the h<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong> His<br />

beloved Mother. His flesh touched her flesh. This was her Son <strong>and</strong> now<br />

He was lifeless in her arms. These are the Hearts <strong>of</strong> Jesus <strong>and</strong> Mary<br />

that give to us such love. As Mary walked beside Jesus all through the<br />

Passion, she walks <strong>for</strong>ever by our sides in all <strong>of</strong> our sufferings. She is<br />

always taking us more <strong>and</strong> more deeply into the Heart <strong>of</strong> her Son. Let<br />

us go to the heart <strong>of</strong> Mary <strong>and</strong> dwell there that she may take us to the<br />

deepest recesses <strong>of</strong> His Heart.
