S11 Day 17: Joyful Mysteries in Petition

Hello family!
And welcome back to day 17 of our 54 day Rosary Novena. I'm your host Maritza Mendez. Thank you for joining us in today's prayer and if you're joining for the very first time, welcome to this beautiful family prayer.

Family, today I want to dedicate a prayer to the beautiful gift of peace. Peace is not just the absence of conflict, but a deep harmony that comes from being in right relationships with God, others, and ourselves. This peace is a fruit of the Holy Spirit and a gift from God. We experience this divine peace when we align our lives with God's will and embrace His love and grace.

Peace is knowing that God is with us, even in our suffering, and that His love for us never changes. As we pray the rosary, we enter into this peace reflecting on Christ's life and His love for us. The repetitive prayers help us to calm our minds and draw us deeper into God's presence.

Peace is also important in our relationships with others. As Jesus said in the Beatitudes "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God".  We are called to be instruments of God's peace in the world, striving for justice, forgiveness, and reconciliation.

Peace is both a gift from God and something we cultivate through prayer, and the sacraments, and living our faith. It’s a peace that endures through all circumstances, rooted in our trust in God’s love and guidance.
