Rosemary's Blessing:   

May you treasure wisely this jeweled, gilded time

And cherish each day as an extra grace

Whose heedless loss would be a tragic crime

In today’s tasks may you find God’s tender face

And may the Lord of the Dance bless you

As He invites you to the dance of the hollowed present.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Prayer for Good Humor
by St. Thomas More

Grant me, O Lord, good digestion, and also something to digest.
Grant me a healthy body, and the necessary good humor to maintain it.
Grant me a simple soul that knows to treasure all that is good
and that doesn’t frighten easily at the sight of evil,
but rather finds the means to put things back in their place.
Give me a soul that knows not boredom, grumblings, sighs and laments,
nor excess of stress, because of that obstructing thing called “I.”
Grant me, O Lord, a sense of good humor.
Allow me the grace to be able to take a joke to discover in life a bit of joy,
and to be able to share it with others.

 

John Stack Ministries meets on Sunday for Mass at
9:30 at the ArtCentre of Plano,
902 E. 16th St, Plano, Texas.

2.  I can walk with a walker, fairly easily & every day more easily.

3.  I was told one hour of being up, one hour of rest.  So true.  After an hour sitting up, I am exhausted and can sleep an hour.  After a day of this, I am wiped out by 7:00. 

4.  Thanks for everything.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

 

… May God bless you with enough foolishness
to believe that you can make a difference
in this world, in your neighborhood,
so that you will courageously try
what you don't think you can do, but,
in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.
