Rosemary's Blessing

May those who have died be at peace and fulfilment,

and may we who are living be filled always with gratefulness for each day, 

thankful for relationships, our five senses, our health, and our spirit.

And may we leave this world a better place for our having been here.

Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week: 

 We thank you for the turning of the seasons

and the long days and the short nights,

for blessing us with summertime,

with sunlight and heat, and with sand and surf.

 

Grant that we may use well our summer respite

for rest and recreation and recollection

and protect us and all those we love this summer.

Wow, Everybody, Seth is awake.  Sez, Seth, "That old guy is finished & I am out of here, yippee!"  

Deuteronomy 8:  He therefore let you be afflicted with hunger, and then fed you with manna, a food unknown to you and your fathers, in order to show you that not by bread alone does one live, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of the LORD.
1 Corinthians 10:  The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ?  The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?
John 6:  Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me.

Rosemary's Blessing:   

We end this meal with grace

For the joy and nourishment of food,

The slowed time away from the world

To come into presence with each other

We pray the wise spirit who keeps us

To change the structures that make others hunger

And that after such grace we might go forth

And impart dignity wherever we partake.
