All of the above mentioned types of prayer are utilized within and are the basis of what has become known as THE ROSARY, making it: A culmination of Traditional and Charismatic Prayer as well as RECITATION of SCRIPTURE to be undertaken in Humility with Contemplation and Meditation.
1). The ROSARY is traditionally prayed One (of the 4) Mysteries per day, although, for many people, more then one mystery per day is Normal.
2). The time invested is about 15 minutes per mystery, or approx. 1% of our days total time. (24hrs x 60 min=1440 min ÷ 15 min = 1. 04167%)
3). Each Thought and Prayer is to be offered as an act of Worshiping GOD in HUMILITY and offering gratitude for His involvements within the life’s of Mary Mother of Jesus–Joseph–ourselves -and a multitude of others, to be honored by recalling their participation with His Divine Will. .To be prayed with an overall intention such as knowledge or healing or interceding for another’s welfare or praise for blessing bestowed. BUT not JUST BABBLING WORDS IN REPETITION WHICH OUR LORD ( via Mathew ) STERNLY WARNS AGAINST.
3a). ALTHOUGH ON that SUBJECT of “babbling”, It needs to be stated that, some days trying to focus, is using all our strength, (and if no lies are being told to ones self) does equate into all we can do. and that is what God desires. For these are the days when we are humbled (or one of the ways to consider “poor in Spirit”) and need be driven by faith alone. This is when our Triune God is allowed to make or re-make us strongest when we are weakest. (please, give some deep thought to this profound explanation of The paradox of humility by Easton)
