Rosemary’s Blessing:   A Dakota Indian Prayer (thanks to Lou Federico)

Grandfather, Great Spirit, you have been always. and before you nothing has been.  There is no one to pray to but you.  The star nations all over the heavens are yours,  and yours are the grasses of the earth.  You are older than all need, older than all pain and prayer.

Grandfather, Great Spirit, look upon your children.  The Spirit Lake Oyate, that they may face the winds and walk the good road to the day of quiet.

Grandfather, Great Spirit, fill us with the light.  Give us with the light.  Give us the strength to understand and eyes to see.  Teach us to walk, the soft earth, as relatives, to all that live.

Help us, for without you we are nothing.

Jackie

    Rosemary's Blessing

     Life is not a journey to the grave

    With the intention of arriving safely

    In a pretty and well preserved body,

    But rather to skid in broadside,

    Thoroughly used up,

    Totally worn out,

    And loudly proclaiming

    —WOW—What a Ride!

    Author Unknown

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Loving God,

    As I journey into the unknown territory of a new year…

    As I hurt in the process of loving those I dislike or find difficult…

    As I learn to accept my strengths, weaknesses and mistakes…

    As I keep searching for the truth in times of confusion, doubt and conflict…

    As I try to be a voice for the voiceless and powerless…

    As I strive to live and witness your inclusive love, compassion, forgiveness, justice and peace…

    As I do the work of the Christmas message and make Christ visible to others…

    Walk closely with me, my God.
