Rosemary's Blessing of the Week.

Lord

May we never take our freedom for granted

and help us to strive so that this same freedom

may be experienced by everyone in our country,

especially the poor and the oppressed,

and eventually by all humankind.

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    Autumn Months

    O God of Creation, you have blessed us with the changing of the seasons.

    As we welcome the autumn months,
    may the earlier setting of the sun
    remind us to take time to rest.

    May the brilliant colors of the leaves
    remind us of the wonder of your creation.

    May the steam of our breath in the cool air
    remind us that it is you who give us the breath of life.

    May the harvest from the fields remind us of the abundance we have been given and bounty we are to share with others.
    May the dying of summer’s spirit remind us of your great promise that death is temporary and life is eternal.
    We praise you for your goodness forever and ever.

    Rosemary’s Blessing

    May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
    With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.
    May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
    The kindness you spread keep returning to you.
    May the friendships you make be those which endure,
    And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.
    And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
    May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    May an abundance of gratitude burst forth in our minds and hearts as we remember all the blessings in our life.

    May we slow our hurried pace these days so we can be aware of, and enjoy, what we can too easily take for granted.

    May we always be open, willing and ready to share our blessings with others and never forget the God who loves us lavishly and unconditionally.

    And may we remember that our thanksgiving is incomplete until we pay it forward by doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.

    Amen.

    From a  prayer by Sr. Jean Amore CSJ, Sacred Heart Academy, Hempstead, N.Y.
