THE ROSARY TO GOD THE FATHER
The Rosary is a sign of the times; of these times that are seeing the return of Jesus on the earth "with great power" (Matt. 24:30). Power is attributed above all to the Father ("I believe in God the Father Almighty"). It is the Father who comes in Jesus, and we must urge Him to hasten the times of the new creation so much desired (Romans 8:19).
The Rosary of the Father in five stations, helps us to reflect on His Mercy, which "is stronger than evil, stronger than sin or death" (Dives in Misericordia, VIII,15).
It reminds us that mankind can and must become an instrument for the triumph of the Love of the Father, giving its yes to Him and thus taking its place in the circle of Trinitarian Love that renders it "the living glory of God".
It teaches us to live the mystery of suffering which is a great gift because it gives us the possibility of bearing witness to Himself, even descending among us.
But we ought not to replace the Rosary of Mary by the Father. We ought rather after reciting the entire Marian Rosary of fifteen stations; ask Our Mother to recite the Rosary of the Father with us. She will do that and with us will invoke our Heavenly Father. Our Father will not be able to resist our calls; He will come and make a "new Heaven and a new earth" (Ap. 21).

THE PRAYER OF THE ROSARY OF THE FATHER
"O God come save me."
"Lord come soon to my aid"
"My Good Father, I offer myself to Thee."
"Lord come soon to my aid"
"Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, now and ever shall be world without end, Amen."
"My Good Father, I offer myself to Thee."
FIRST MYSTERY: We contemplate on the triumph of the Father in the Garden of Eden, when after the sin of Adam and Eve, He promises the coming of the Lord.
The Lord God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, you shall be banned from all the animals and all the wild creatures. On your belly shall you crawl, and dirt shall you eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and hers. He will strike at your head, while you strike at his heel." (Gen. 3:14-15)
Recite HAIL MARY, 10 OUR FATHERS, GLORY BE, MY GOOD FATHER, ANGEL OF GOD.
SECOND MYSTERY: We contemplate on the triumph of the Father at the moment of the Fiat of Mary during the Annunciation.
The Angel said to Mary: "Do not fear Mary. You have found favor with God. You shall conceive and bear a Son and give Him the name Jesus. Great will be His dignity and He shall be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of David His father. He will rule over the house of Jacob forever and His reign will be without end." (Lk.: 1,30-33)
Recite HAIL MARY, 10 OUR FATHERS, GLORY BE, MY GOOD FATHER, ANGEL OF GOD.
THIRD MYSTERY: We contemplate on the triumph of the Father when He gives all His power to the Son.
"Father, if it is Your will, take this cup from Me; yet not My will but Your will be done." An angel then appeared to Him from heaven to strengthen Him. In His anguish He prayed with all the greater intensity, and His sweat became like drops of blood falling from the ground." (Lk. 22: 42-44)
Recite HAIL MARY, 10 OUR FATHERS, GLORY BE, MY GOOD FATHER, ANGEL OF GOD.
FOURTH MYSTERY: We contemplate on the triumph of the Father at the moment of every particular judgment.
"While he was still a long way off, his father caught sight of him and was deeply moved. He ran out to meet him and threw his arms around his neck and kissed him. The son said to him, "Father, I have sinned against God and against you; so I no longer deserved to be called your son."
The father said to his servants: "Quick! Bring out the finest robe and put it on him; put a ring on his finger and shoes on his feet. Take the fatted calf and kill it. Let us eat and celebrate because this son of mine was dead and has come back to life. He was lost and is found." (Lk.: 15, 20-24)
Recite HAIL MARY, 10 OUR FATHERS, GLORY BE, MY GOOD FATHER, ANGEL OF GOD
FIFTH MYSTERY: We contemplate the triumph of the Father at the moment of final judgment.
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The former heavens and the former earth had passed away, and the sea was no longer. I also saw a new Jerusalem, the holy city, coming down out of heaven from God, beautiful as a bride prepared to meet her husband.
I heard a loud voice from the throne cry out: "This is God's dwelling among men. He shall dwell with them, and they shall be His people and He shall be their God who is always with them. He shall wipe every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death or mourning, crying out or pain, for the former world has passed away. " (Rev. 21, 1-4)
Recite HAIL MARY, 10 OUR FATHERS, GLORY BE, MY GOOD FATHER, ANGEL OF GOD
Father, the earth needs You, me too, we all need You; the heavily polluted air needs You. We beg You, Dear Father, come back to watch the streets of the world; come back to live among Your people, come back to guide the nations; come back to bring Peace and with it Justice; come back to bring the fit of Your love, so that, redeemed to sorrow, we may become new creatures in You. Amen, Amen.
