So my family and I were on the plane headed from California to Chicago on a connecting flight. As I gazed out the window at the clouds, mountains, and desert below, I began reflecting on how I want to do things differently when we return to Delaware. Out of nowhere, I fell asleep. I'm not sure how long I slept, but suddenly, I woke up with a start, as if from a nightmare. However, I believe it was the Holy Spirit prompting me to pray the Rosary. Just then, the pilot announced that we were entering an area with severe turbulence due to a storm or hurricane.

Immediately, I pulled out my Rosary and opened the Laudate app on my phone to guide me through the sacred mysteries. I prayed with all my heart. When I finished praying and looked out the window, the skies had cleared, the sun had come out, and the clouds were beautiful and thick.

This experience reminded me of the power of prayer and the peace it brings amidst life's storms. It taught me that when we shift our focus from our fears and worries to God, He brings clarity and calm. Let us always turn to prayer, trusting that God is with us, guiding us through every turbulence. May we all find comfort and strength in His presence.

God bless,
