Today we will pray the Second Sorrowful Mystery: The Scourging at the Pillar. The fruit of this mystery is purity and mortification. As a mom, you will have many opportunities to make small sacrifices every minute of every day. Even now, as an expectant mom, you have already made so many sacrifices and will continue to do so.

Today we will pray the Third Luminous Mystery: The Proclamation of the Kingdom of God. These are the ordinary days of Jesus’ ministry. Days of excitement and anticipation, of crowds pressing in, eager to hear His words of hope and witness His healings. But they are also days of discomfort and weariness, of feet tired from walking, of aching joints and short tempers, of bodies wanting to rest.
