Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

 

… May God bless you with enough foolishness
to believe that you can make a difference
in this world, in your neighborhood,
so that you will courageously try
what you don't think you can do, but,
in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.

    Zephaniah 2: But I will leave as a remnant in your midst a people humble and lowly, who shall take refuge in the name of the LORD: the remnant of Israel.
    1 Corinthians 1:  It is due to him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, as well as righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, so that, as it is written, “Whoever boasts, should boast in the Lord.”
    Matthew 4: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land. … “

      Rosemary's Blessing

    As Lazarus came forth alive from the tomb,

    May we too, come forth from the tombs which bind and hold us.

    May we be filled with the life and blessings

    That nourish and fulfill ourselves and each other.

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    Gethsemane by Mary Oliver

    The grass never sleeps.
    Or the roses.
    Nor does the lily have a secret eye that shuts until morning.

    Jesus said, wait with me. But the disciples slept.

    The cricket has such splendid fringe on its feet,
    and it sings, have you noticed, with its whole body,
    and heaven knows if it ever sleeps.

    Jesus said, wait with me.

    And maybe the stars did, maybe the wind wound itself into a silver tree, and didn’t move,
    maybe the lake far away, where once he walked as on a blue pavement, lay still and waited, wild awake.

    Oh the dear bodies, slumped and eye-shut, that could not
    keep that vigil, how they must have wept,
    so utterly human, knowing this too
    must be a part of the story.

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    God,

    Bless anyone who has asked me to pray for them

    and anyone that I have promised to pray for.

    Bless anyone that I cannot get along with

    And anyone that cannot get along with me.

    Bless the person who has hurt me deeply

    and anyone that I have hurt.

    Bless the person that I cannot forgive

    and anyone that cannot forgive me.

    Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today
