She, herself, can do nothing for me, but in turn to ask Jesus to help.

Let's say this is true. How is it that a mere mortal, with limited attention-span and capabilities, can hear the prayers of hundreds of millions of RCC faithful and attend to each one? This applies to all your "saints". Unless you grant them god-like powers, they can't. If you grant them god-like powers, then you've re-established the pagan system of hierarchical gods under the cover of the Christian tag.

Nope, they are not Gods. They are saints.......and Mary is Jesus’ mother. Life’s struggles are difficult enough, I will ask for help where I chose, just as you are free to do. I am not attempting to convert you to the rosary, but to explain my choice in prayer. You are free to accept it or not. Just be careful about accusing me of worshipping pagan gods, I am not.
