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.

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

This is the fourth episode in our meditation on God's plan for marriage, family,

and sexuality.

It's almost as if today absolutely no one understands why the sexual act belongs only in the context of marriage.

People experiment as a matter of course once they hit puberty, they see

sexuality as something recreational, something entertaining, and most tragically of all, perhaps even Catholics,

most Catholic couples are cohabitating

before they get married,

as though marriage is an afterthought

or some kind of optional accessory to their

sexual relationship. But the church has always taught that sexual activity

belongs inside of marriage. That's the only place where it's appropriate. Not just

because God says so, but because that's how we're made.

Our Father who art in heaven, hollow would be your name. Thy kingdom come thy will be down on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us to stay 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.
