Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for.

Today is the Feast of All Saints. The first reading from the mass today tells us what this

feast is all about. In 1 John chapter 3 we hear, think of the love that the father has lavished on us by letting us be

called God's children and that is what we are. We are already the children of God, but what we are to be in the future has not yet been revealed.

All we know is that when it is revealed we shall be like him because we shall see him as he really

is. Surely everyone who entertains this hope must purify himself, must try to be as pure as Christ.

Now every person is created in the image of God, which means that we are endowed with

intelligence and freedom. That's how we all come into the world.

Yet that is not all.

Because every person is also called to become like God,

to be transfigured into his likeness.

But what in the world does that look like?

Well, that is precisely why God became one of us. To show us what it was like and to give us the way to become

so ourselves.

To be like God is to be like Jesus, to be fully human and divine.

And that's what it means to be holy. And that's what it means to be holy and that's what we celebrate

with the feast of all Saints. That's the goal of life. Is that your top goal? Is that what you're shooting for?

Or Father who art in heaven, hallow it be your name, Thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us a stare our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not

into temptation but deliver us from evil, Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women. Blessed is a fruit of thy womb Jesus.
