Welcome to daily Rosary meditations with Dr. Mike Schurselik, where you learn how to meditate and establish a daily habit of prayer while discovering the truths of the Catholic faith. Is there someone you know that could benefit from daily prayer?

Share this meditation with them. them. 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 we're beginning a new series on the theological virtues of faith, hope, and love.

Now most people think that as a Christian if we're a good enough person then when we

die God will let us live in heaven but we stay just at the level that we're at now. We remain as we are now thinking and

acting in a human way. It's just that we won't have all the crap that goes with

it in heaven. Your crap will be cleaned up and my

crap will be cleaned up and we'll be able to live as crap-free humans forever.

But we're still just humans.

Almost no one realizes that God is trying to bring us

to a totally new level, his level. We call this divinization, where we share in God's being and activity.

Now for this to happen, God has to give us an entirely new way of being and acting, and it's twofold.

He puts himself in us and he gives us special gifts.

He gives us himself and he gives us a new capacity

by which we live. that new capacity is called faith, hope and love, which we receive

at baptism.

Our Father who art in heaven, Halloween be your name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses,
