| 0:00.0 | Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. |
| 0:06.4 | Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for. |
| 0:11.5 | Have you ever been at a restaurant or a coffee shop where you can overhear the couple at the next table? |
| 0:18.1 | And you can tell they're on a first date and sometimes you can just tell the guy is |
| 0:24.5 | totally blowing it all he's doing is talking about himself he's not complimenting the girl or |
| 0:31.5 | asking her about her story or her life or her views and worst of all all, when the waiter comes, he makes all the |
| 0:40.7 | decisions for both of them, even without asking what she wants. Now, of course, what she probably |
| 0:47.7 | wants by that point is for the date just to end. But notice how we so often do the same thing to God in prayer. |
| 1:01.2 | Notice how the first half of the Our Father is exactly the opposite of that spoiled date. |
| 1:09.4 | Jesus tells us to begin the Our Father by praising our Father, by celebrating |
| 1:15.2 | him, by making Him the center of the conversation, not us. And then we wind up the first half, |
| 1:24.6 | not by informing Him of what we want, but by inviting him to take the lead, |
| 1:32.3 | saying, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. That's the language of deference, instead |
| 1:42.3 | of an attempt to dominate, because that's the language of love. |
| 1:51.8 | Our Father who art in heaven, hallow it be your name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done |
| 1:55.6 | on earth as it is in heaven. |
| 1:57.4 | Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who |
| 2:02.9 | trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, amen. |
| 2:08.7 | Hail Mary, full of grace the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women. Blessed is a fruit of |
| 2:14.2 | thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us and sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and the hour of our death, |
| 2:20.3 | amen. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women. Blessed is a fruit of |
| 2:26.6 | thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us and sinners, now and at the hour of our death, amen. |
