Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week    

 May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.

May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
The kindness you spread keep returning to you.

May the friendships you make be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.

And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

Grace E. Easley

Rosemary's Blessing

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.
