Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

Bless the Journey

May you see the way wherever the journey takes you, sailing safely over rough water and weathering the waves’ dips and crests

May you find treasure in Earth’s infinite variety, beauty and surprise

May you hear the ocean’s music in every shell you hold to your ear

May your boat fill with insight, laughter, generosity and love

as you discover new landscapes and explore the wide expanse of memory.

Yours are the feet with which Christ is to
