Rosary to ask for discernment

We pray with Mary before an important decision.

meditated rosary

In the face of an important decision, the heart seeks light to distinguish the good from the best and to choose with peace. The Rosary offers us that serene space in which, together with Mary, we contemplate Christ who teaches the way and ask for docility to the Holy Spirit. Praying it slowly, before deciding, we learn to seek God's will and to entrust the result.

Suggested mysteries: Luminous

Spiritual fruit: Light, peace and docility to the Spirit

When I pray: Before an important decision

How to pray it

Pray the Holy Rosary as usual - sign of the Cross, Creed, and every mystery with his Father, ten Avemarias and Gloria. Before you start, do the initial prayer; in every ten, you welcome the proposed intention; at the end, the final prayer. If you want to pray it guided step by step, enter into Begin the Rosary.

Opening prayer

Holy Mary, Mother of the Good Council, I come to you before a decision that overcomes me and that I wish to make good. Come with me to contemplate your Son Jesus, who is the Way, and raise me from the Holy Spirit the light I need. Take away my haste, order my reasons and distract my heart to hear what God wants from me. May he not seek my will, but his will, which is always for my good. Amen.

Mysteries and meditations

Luminous Mysteries — for this intention:

1st mystery - The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan

The Spirit descends upon Jesus and the Father points to him as the beloved Son. We ask for that same light to see clearly and to recognize the path that opens to us.

Intent of this ten: to ask for light before a decision.

2nd mystery - The weddings of Cana

Mary says, "Do as He tells you." We learn to leave behind our plans to seek and obey God's will above one's own.

Intent of this ten: to seek God's will and not his own.

3rd mystery - The Kingdom's announcement and the call to conversion

Jesus calls to trust in the Good News and to take the step of change. We ask courage to overcome the fear of choosing and not to be paralyzed.

Intent of this ten: overcome the fear of choosing.

4th mystery - The Transfiguration of the Lord

On the mountain, the disciples look at glory and hear, "Listen to him." From that light we learn to trust the result of our decision to God.

Intent of this ten: entrust the result to God.

5th mystery - The institution of the Eucharist

Jesus is fully given as food and company. We thank you for the guidance you have received and for your presence that holds us in every step.

Intent of this ten: give thanks for the guide received.

Closing prayer

Our mother, we entrust to you the fruit of this Rosary, prayed to discern well. Alcanzus of the Holy Spirit the light that illuminates, the peace that serene and the docility that he can obey. May we freely choose what pleases God and abandon in their hands what does not depend on us. To you, Mother of the Good Council, we entrust this decision. Amen.

When you finish, you can offer this Rosary like a rose to the Virgin in the Rosary Garden.
