    Rosemary's Blessing

    Loving Father,

    often we forget your gifts to us,

    letting them pass unnoticed through each day.

    Show us how to look again, to see through your eyes

    and give freely in response to what we see.

    Amen

    Isaiah 60:  Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem!  Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you.
    Ephesians 3:  
    It was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit:  that the Gentiles are coheirs, members of the same body, and copartners in the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
    Matthew 2:  And behold, the star that they had seen at its rising preceded them,  until it came and stopped over the place where the child was. They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother.

    The Kiss of Peace


    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    “A Franciscan Blessing”:

    MAY GOD BLESS YOU with discomfort,
    at easy answers, half-truths,
    and superficial relationships
    so that you may live
    deep within your heart.

    May God bless you with anger
    at injustice, oppression,
    and exploitation of people,
    so that you may work for
    justice, freedom and peace.

    May God bless you with tears,
    to shed for those who suffer pain,
    rejection, hunger, and war,
    so that you may reach out your hand
    to comfort them and
    to turn their pain to joy.

    And may God bless you
    with enough foolishness
    to believe that you can
    make a difference in the world,
    so that you can do
    what others claim cannot be done,
    to bring justice and kindness
    to all our children and the poor.

    Amen

    to bring peace among all peoples,
    and to make a little music with the heart…
