Our Lady of the Rosary

Note.  Yesterday I had an unexpected extended stay in the hospital, so I had not access to a computer. I want to comment on the Rosary today, nevertheless,

Perhaps one of the most familiar, popular and powerful prayers that Catholics treasure, is the Rosary.  Not only does it contain the beloved Hail Mary and the Lord' Prayer...that Jesus himself taught us, but its mysteries take us day after day into the life of Jesus.  The more familiar with his life, the more we come to know and love him.  Today's Gospel give us Luke's short but powerful version of the Our Father:
Father, hallowed be your name,
your Kingdom come.
Give us each day our daily bread
and forgive us our sins,
for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us,
and do not subject us to the final test.  (Lk 11: 2-4)
We recite the Our  Father six times in the course of the five decade rosary, so much so, that it can easily become rote.  This version from Luke gets us to its core and might make us appreciate it more. Indeed, a slow praying of the rosary during this month of October, dedicated to the Holy Rosary, might help us appreciate all of its elements from the 150 Ave's (Hail Marys) to the 15 mysteries.  If we haven't started to do anything special with the rosary this month, this might be a way of allowing it to help us grown in faith and trust.
