THE ROSARY AS MEDICINE

Quote for the Day - October 7, 2010


Feast of the Holy Rosary


"Some people do not like to take the medicine that would heal them, and call it nonsense. The rosary is exactly that medicine which cures an amazing deal of nonsense. Call it spiritual homeopathy if you like. Many a proud spirit has been brought down by it - many a faddy spirit has been made patient by it. Many a queasy spirit has been made strong by it. Many a distracted spirit has become recollected by it."


Archbishop Ullathorne [1806-1889], Letters in the Oscation (19th century).



I have a whole series of meditations on the Rosary on this blog. Check them out.
