Rosemary’s Blessing:   A Blessing for the Day (Adapted from a blessing by Andrew Greeley)

May the God of the dawn awaken you;  May the God of sunrise stir you up;  May the God of morning bless your work;   May the God of noon renew your strength;  May the God of sunset bring you home;  May the God of dusk soothe your soul;  May the God of night bring you rest.

    Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

     

    Lord

    Enlighten what’s dark in me,

    Strengthen what’s weak in me,

    Mend what’s broken in me,

    Bind what’s bruised in me,

    Heal what’s sick in me,

    And lastly,

    Revive whatever peace and love

    Has died in me.

    Amen.
