The Last Judgement

I know the importance of the Rosary and how it can heal a soul. While at the Cathedral in Seattle, I often see people suffering and spiritually dying on the streets. They need God who is their only hope. I have many tears for them. They used to be someone's baby. They used to be pure innocence and are now cursed and staggering toward eternal death. They desperately need prayer and God's mercy.

Many years ago, prior to my conversion to Catholicism, I had a dream of a horrific creature who was eating people alive and was as big as a whale. During the dream, I heard the Lord calmly tell me that the person (being eaten) used drugs. I woke feeling physically and emotionally shaken. It was beyond horrible. Years later, I saw that same creature depicted in a painting by the artist Giotto di Bondone called "The Last Judgement". Seeing this image was surreal because I had dreamt of the actual scene within a painting that was created in the 1300s at a time when I didn't know much about Christianity. I grew up in Utah, and was quite naïve regarding Catholicism. This experience became part of my conversion story.

Later, I was guided by the Holy Spirit to the Rosary and told that the many people who are dying from drug abuse in Seattle NEED for us to pray the Rosary to save their souls. Also, I understand that we are on the cusp of end times as evidenced by the comments from the Holy Spirit regarding the drug use of the person who was suffering. A 13th century painting is depicting the eternal outcome of people who live near me and are dying from mortal sins that are happening today.  
The Rosary is critical in these times. I am very drawn to Rosary Ministry because of these types of issues. Many people have forgotten and/or underestimate the Rosary or prayer in general, but God wins so I have much hope that the Lord is giving us the information, passion and tools to remedy our current crisis through Him. It is beautiful that the Lord guided me to Him in this way, because I am now the leader of a Healing Rosary Ministry in Seattle. He called me before I knew who He is. He had a plan to save me and many others before I believed that He existed. God has a plan. Please know this. There is hope. :)
