Chaplet of Divine Mercy: Why make the sign of the cross? What does it mean? (part 5)
You've probably heard me making the sign of the cross if you pray the chaplet with me (or with anyone else, for that matter). The sign of the cross is used in so many areas of life! As I've incorporated this ritual into my life, it's actually changed me. Let me tell you what it means to me as a Protestant, how Catholics use it, how I've made it part of my life, and why it's become so meaningful to me. Then consider for yourself whether God would have you make this ancient Christian ritual a part of your own life.
Btw, about 6 months after making this video, I became Catholic, but when I made this video, I was still a Protestant.
Here's the video I made for you to pray the Chaplet along with me. I've written the chaplet up on cards, so you can easily follow along. I also show the beads so you know where you should be on the rosary when you pray this. https://crwdview.com/watch/IUaL5MeSGV7BZcJ I hope you'll pray along with me.
One more thing that I found after recording this: Often, Catholic parents will make the sign of the cross on their children's foreheads before bed or going someplace away from the parents. What a lovely way of reminding them -- and us, as parents -- that they belong to God!
By the way, I write transformational fiction and the first two books in my Isaiah Cadre series are available free in ebook form! You can get the first one here: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/es49ch5nyr After you read that book, the next one comes along with a free subscription to my newsletter.
If you'd like to join me for Bible study, prayer, and inspiration, I have another CrwdView channel: https://crwdview.com/@isaiah3020
