Rosemary's Blessing:

 

A Thanksgiving prayer from a Dear Abbey column:

  

“Father and Mother of all:

We give thanks for food and remember the hungry,

We give thanks for health and remember the sick,

We give thanks for friends and remember the friendless,

We give thanks for freedom and remember the enslaved.

May our giving thanks stir us to service, that our blessings may be shared with others. Amen.”

    Rosemary’s Blessing

    Come, O Dancing God,

    Spirit of Life and Love,

    of Beauty and Diversity,

    stir up my soul,

    bathe me in your light,

    and unleash my own spirit

    that I may dance with you

    and be light for those around me

    and reflect your love to all that I meet this week.

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

    May the Lord grant you

            A tolerance for those who don’t agree with you,

            A refusal to judge others,

            A willingness to forgive,

            A calm and hopeful spirit in the midst of anxieties,

            And a holy anger for injustice in the world.
