All the idle moments of one's life can be sanctified, thanks to the rosary. As we walk the streets, we pray with the rosary hidden in our hand or in our pocket; as we are driving an automobile, the little knobs under most steering wheels can serve as counters of the decades. While waiting to be served at a lunchroom, or waiting for  a train, or in a store, or while playing dummy at bridge, or when conversation or  a lecture lags - all these moments can be sanctified and made to serve inner peace,  thanks to a prayer that enables one to pray at all times and under all circumstances.

Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."
