Music to my ears…
Precious has been having a very hard time lately. I may have mentioned it previously. She has been spending a minimum of 1.5 hours in prayer a day praying a Consecration Rosary. It is something she does out of necessity, but it has born fruit beyond herself.
As I finished typing up the second Merton post, and even now, I can hear the sweet and stumbling words of Sunshine (dd 8 yrs old) from down the hall where she is praying a scriptural rosary in her bedroom. Having been given a rosary by Precious and a scriptural rosary book upon request by Cricket (dd 9 yrs), she has gone to bed to pray before sleep. I’m sure there are sweeter sounds to some, but the sweetest sound to my ears is the precious voice of my daughter haltingly lifted in prayer to the Lord.
Surely, God has blessed me abundantly above all I could ask or imagine.
