Rosemary's Blessing:

Give us, O God, the vision which can see Your love in the world in spite of human failure.
Give us the faith to trust Your goodness in spite of our ignorance and weakness.
Give us the knowledge that we may continue to pray with understanding hearts.
And show us what each one of us can do to set forward the coming of the day of universal peace.

Rosemary's Blessing: 

Take time to be aware that in the very midst of our busy preparations for the celebration of Christ’s birth in ancient Bethlehem,

Christ is reborn in the Bethlehems of our homes and daily lives.

Take time, slow down, be still, be awake to the Divine Mystery that looks so common and so ordinary yet is wondrously present.

Take Time to be Aware … Edward Hays, A Pilgrim’s Almanac, p. 196
