In case anyone might be interested in a scriptural rosary aid for personal devotion

    Years ago, I offered my guide to a daily course reading of the Gospels for Lent.*

    It occurs to me to offer another personal devotional aid for daily prayer, especially in Lent, that also contains a Scriptural dimension - a form of illustrated Scriptural Rosary. This form has evolved over the course of several years from my own reflections. Some of my own choices for fruits of the mysteries do vary from typical ones - especially for the newer Luminous Mysteries (or Mysteries of Light) that some (or many) may eschew, but they reflect my own reflection on them. I also take a different approach for the 4th & 5th Sorrowful Mysteries - basically, a mash-up of the Stations of The Cross and the Seven Last Words, but NOT in traditional/conventional order but from an order that arose in connection with prayers for other people in distress before I even had the idea of developing the larger aid; if you find the re-arrangements distracting, do as you would prefer. This is just an aid for personal prayer and devotion, and I merely offer it on the remote chance that someone, someday, might find it fruitful in some way. It's designed so it can be viewed on a mobile or other device (I use the Book or Notes app on Apple devices) while praying with your beads (or without them if you don't have them with you!). (And there is some lovely art, including a back piece, as it were.)
