revealed mysteries

The rosary can explain what you’re going through.

Every people have these different reactions waking up in the morning. Some thank God; some already feel the day’s pressure; some are annoyed; some are feeling weak; some are saddened by the fact that it’s another day again for their hurts and pains; some just wake up, smile and do the normal; some are just still. 

Some people choose to stay happy upon opening their eyes despite of problems overload or burdens waiting at the door of their hearts. They choose to be happy and smile to the world as if they bear a happy heart.  In short, they pretend to be happy to spread positive vibes to each person they meet.

Yet at the end of the day, when no one is around, questions rise. Why should I not feel this happiness until I close my eyes? Or why can’t I just sleep to move away from reality? Why should it be me? Have I done wrong? Do I deserve this? Why is life so unfair? How can I handle this? Are you really my God? Do you still love me? Can’t you see my efforts? Why am I not rich? Why are they mean? Are you crazy?

I have been questioning that too. Why can’t I be happy always? Why should I feel pain though I’m not really entertaining it. Have I been too bad? Those are just few questions that have been answered by my bracelet, lately.

Monday. I decided atlast to start praying my most loved novena to my Almighty’s dearest mother. Joyful mysteries. Mama Mary has been chosen to bear a child of the Creator. And from humble beginnings with St. Joseph, they were able to nurture Jesus far more better than any other child. They are a happy simple family.  They are the best family in the whole world. And the happiest moment: the time when Jesus entered the house of his adored Father.

Tuesday. Sorrowful mysteries. Despite of being good, doing everything favorable in the eyes of God, Jesus was still condemned and persecuted by so called religious people. Thinking that He is the Son of God, I know you still questioned why it should happen to Him. Yes, He is the Son of God. He knows how it feels to be unloved, rejected, alone, helpless, weak. He also felt this world’s injustice. But His faith made Him strong. Maybe during those times, he can’t understand why, but he laid it all down. Obeyed His Creator. Died.

Wednesday. Glorious mysteries.  Time to shine, time to appreciate the sun, smile again, rejoice! This is the most rewarding part of Jesus’s life. After facing such cruelness and putting everything in the name of God, he raised from the dead! The light welcomed Him. People then believed that He is truly the Son of Man! He was glorified, adored, enthroned, praised!

Thursday. Luminous Mysteries. Jesus’s glorification. This is now a bonus. A throwback. How Jesus lived. How he done things told to Him by His father. How he obeyed. His miracles, his faith, his power. And as praise and thanksgiving, as declared in the fifth mystery, becoming one body through Jesus.  

Revealed mysteries…

Still in puzzle why we need to undergo hardships? Pray the rosary. We might not find the perfect answer but rest assured burdens are slowly unloaded. Think it this way, Jesus is probably the very super mega favorite Son of our Creator. But He let him feel joy and sorrow. He let Jesus laugh with people, love his parents, appreciate the world, preach, but He also let Him feel the pain and suffer. We are just ordinary people as this world may tag us, but we are most loved in the eyes of the Lord. Feel the joy, embrace sorrow, never get tired of doing great things! For the Lord is not blind to your efforts. Remember Wednesday. Our Almighty God will crown you for being such a great gorgeous gift to this world!
