Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

 

Prayer of Gratitude

 

O Creator,

Awaken my heart

    to the miracle of life that surrounds me;

    the beauty of friendship, family, and community;

    and the knowledge that I am forever held in your love.

May I always remember to seek your grace in unexpected places,

filling me with joy and gratitude for your abundant blessings,

as I open myself to the Charity of Christ.

Amen

    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.
