Realizing There Is A God

by A
(Michigan, USA)

Years ago I lost my faith. My husband was an alcoholic and had gambling issues. We fought verbally and physically at times. Nothing in my life was going right; I was crying all the time and just could not believe that there was a God. My grandmother kept telling me to pray the rosary daily. I started to, but not every day.

Then one Saturday, I was in the garden moving a rock and crying over the issues in my life. I moved the rock and then the greatest feeling of peace came over me. Nothing changed in my life for years. My husband still drank, we were fighting, my kids were affected, but I was able to deal with this. The peace I felt and the security was the greatest feeling.

My husband has been sober for almost 5 years now. I say my rosary and I know that God is there. He never promised us a great life; he promised he would be there. I truly believe that reciting the rosary daily has given me the peace that I so longed for. My life is not perfect, I have financial issues and others but I am at peace, I can make it through with God’s help.

If you recite the rosary you cannot help but be impacted in a great way. I find ways to tell people and many of my friends have now started this devotion, maybe not daily, but it is a start.
