recently I have been picking up my sister from school on my days off. At her high school parish there is a beautiful 24 hour perpetual adoration chapel. I am actually lucky enough to have two 24 hour chapels within a 15 minute drive! So about twice a week or so I have been going to have some personal quiet time with Jesus.
I have noticed a real difference in me and how I have been able to handle the usual everyday stresses.
The best benefit of these little visits that I can see is that I have been able to pray the rosary more often. With this long prayer I tend to have a very hard time concentrating. I really need complete silence in order to concentrate on the mysteries and not lose track of where I am. If I am not at a chapel really the only other way that I can say this prayer without getting all stressed out is if I go for a walk. Sometimes I will take the dog for a walk just so I can pray. Sometimes prayer can be very difficult. We just need to keep trying different ways to see which is the best for you.
