Rosemary’s Blessing

Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

Amazing how God works through laughter.

  Sr. Mary Elizabeth Schweiger

     Rosemary's Blessing of The Week,  

    What good did it do when you frowned?  Let me ask:

    Did it help you at all to accomplish your task?

    Did it lighten your burden or help you along?

    Did the frown that you wore make a right out of wrong?

     

    What good did it do to be grouchy today?

    Did your surliness drive any trouble away?

    Did you cover more ground than you usually do?

    Because of the grouch that you carried with you?

     

    If not, what’s the use of a grouch or a frown?

    If it won’t smooth a path or a grim trouble down?

    If it doesn’t assist you , it isn’t worth while:

    Your work may be hard, but just do it and smile.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us,

    we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures,

    have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.

    The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion,

    who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement,

    who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing

    and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.
