Rosemary's Blessing: Oh, Lord,

Lent goes by too quickly, as does my Life.

Help me to take advantage of all the opportunities You give Me.

Invitation to Love which You Always offer Me.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

 

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!

Taken from IN FLANDERS FIELDS
By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

 

Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915 
during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

 

May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.
May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
The kindness you spread keep returning to you.
May the friendships you make be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.
And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

Grace E. Easley

 Rosemary’s Blessing: 

We give thanks for our bread,

We give thanks for our butter,

And most of all,

We give thanks for each other.

For each new morning with its light,

For rest and shelter of the night,

For health and food,

For love and friends,

For everything Thy goodness sends.

 Father in heaven

We thank thee.

 Ralph Waldo Emerson

Rosemary’s
Blessing:

May those that love us, love us. And those that don't love us,

May God turn their hearts. 
And if He doesn't turn their hearts,

May He turn their ankles, so we will know them by their limping.

 An Irish Blessing
