Reminder for Sunday, April 22, 2018, 4th Easter

Rosemary's Blessing:

 

Grant us, Lord God,

 

a vision of your world as your

love would have it: 

 

a world where the weak are protected,

and none go hungry or poor; 

 

a world where the riches of creation are

shared, and everyone can enjoy them; 

 

a world where different races and cultures

live in harmony and mutual respect; 

 

a world where peace is built with justice,

and justice is guided by love.

 

Give us the inspiration and courage to

build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

Amen.

Rosemary's Blessing: 

 

May God bless you with tears…
to shed for those who suffer from pain,
rejection, starvation and war.
May God bless you so that
you may reach out your hand
to comfort them and turn their pain into joy.

The Status of The Hip:

1.  Been off pain meds since Tuesday.  Not because of being macho.  Just no pain.

2.  The physical therapist says the therapy is going so good that probably Monday we will get rid of the walker and use a cane to walk with.

3.  I was told one hour of being up, one hour of rest.  So true.  After an hour sitting up, I am exhausted and can sleep an hour.  In fact, I am delighted that the exhaustion, the trembles, the cold to the bone feeling, and the dizziness at the end of the hour has gone away a day or so ago.   

4.  Thanks for everything, the food, the special, community blessed shawl, and the affirmation.
