Rosemary's Blessing

This Christmas

let us make visible God's love,

forgiveness, compassion and generosity

in our thoughts, words and actions. 

Like the Shepherds and Kings,

let us be courageous and find God in the different and the stranger. 

Let us let go of grudges and hurts. Let us be strong yet gentle.  

Let us give thanks for God’s gifts of love we find in our family, friends and earth, our common home.

Today, in the New year, and in all the days of our lives
