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.

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.
