Good and devote Christians I do not believe that you will mind if I give you this little mystical rose tree which is planted in the garden of your soul.
The mystical rose tree is Jesus and Mary in life, death, and eternity. It's green leaves are the Joyful Mysteries, the thorns are the Sorrowful Mysteries, and the flowers are the Glorious Mysteries.
**Pope John Paul added that the light from heaven that is shown on the tree is the Luminous Mysteries.
The buds are the childhood of Jesus and Mary, and the open blooms represent the sufferings of both, and the full bloom roses represent Jesus and Mary in their triumph and glory.
