The Scriptural Rosary J St Dominic

Our Lady of Fatima asked us to pray the Rosary every day, and striving to be a good Catholic in the intense challenges of this world, I would very much like to do that, in a serious way.
The Scriptural Rosary I've composed and prayed with has grown my own prayer life and I'm confident it can do the same for you!

Choosing Mortification
Adoramus Te, Christe, et benedicimus Tibi - We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You!

➕➕➕St. Ambrose - “If you look to yourself, you can do nothing, but if you trust in God, strength will be given you.”
If we would enter into the Glory of the Blessed, says the Scripture, we must, through much tribulation, enter into the Kingdom of God: “These are the ones who have come out of great tribulation, and have washed their garments, and have made them white in the Blood of the Lamb. (Apocalypse/Revelation 7:14)”
Saint Teresa of Avila - “He who drags the Cross along with ill will feels its weight, however small it is, but he willingly embraces it, however large it is, does not feel it.” -
