Judith Sims, Johannesburg – I have a 10-bead rosary in my car which hangs on the indicator lever. I hold it in my right hand and pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet.
In this way, I am praying for every person in every vehicle on the road.
I find this beautiful prayer is most unselfish.
Depending on the distance I’m travelling, the first decade is for my beloved country South Africa. Then the next decade for troubled places, then the whole world.
Our Lord has changed me. I am a more patient driver, calmer and more alert on our busy, busy crowded roads.
Please try praying this way when driving, and God will bless you and those around you.
