Rosemary’s Blessing:

Be the One

Jesus, thank you for loving me so much.
Help me to love others as you do.
When someone is lonely, help me to be the one to be kind.
When others are left out, help me to be the one to include them.
When someone is sad, help me be the one to bring joy.
Show me your face in every person I meet.
Let me be the one to console You and my neighbor,
with kindness, a smile, prayers and love.
Give me courage to “be the one”
who builds up the body of Christ today. Amen.
