Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

 

If the only prayer you say

In your entire life is

“Thank you”

That would suffice.

    Rosemary’s Blessing  

    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.

    Jeremiah 20:  But the LORD is with me, like a mighty champion: my persecutors will stumble, they will not triumph. In their failure they will be put to utter shame, to lasting, unforgettable confusion.
    Romans 5:  But the gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, how much more did the grace of God and the gracious gift of the one man Jesus Christ overflow for the many.
    Matthew 10:  Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s knowledge. Even all the hairs of your head are counted. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    Loving God, through the gift of our fathers,
    you reveal your wisdom, love and care.

    Continue to bless and guide these holy men
    you have given to us in our lives.

    Support them in their call
    to lead holy lives of faithfulness, respect and integrity.

    May their witness of faith and love
    shine from them and on their children and families
    giving hope and encouragement to all.

    Bless them for all the ways they lift their children to achieve their dreams.
    Bless them for their sacrifice, their forgiveness and their guidance.

    Bless grandfathers, uncles, brothers, cousins, teachers and coaches
    who have shown us love and support.

    For those fathers who have lost a child or spouse,
    give them your loving touch of healing
    consoling them with your gentle care.

    For those fathers who have gone before us,
    bring them to your eternal banquet of joy and peace;
    bring them the fullness of union with you
    and communion with us as we remember their love for us.
    Amen.

    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.
