Rosemary's Blessing

Lord of all,

Bless our families.

Be they formed by blood or by circumstance,

Make them holy.

 

May we find you

In our relationships.

In our marriages, in our families, in our households, in our communities, in our global humanity.

 

May we look across all that divides us

And see family, and embrace as a family does, and love as a family ought to.

 

For where two or three gather in your name. There are you.

Amen.

 

A Family Blessing from CRS (Catholic Relief Services)

    Gilberto Delgado sent in this info that might help those of you who have had difficulty with one or more of our file attachments on the blog:

    I heard that some in our community are having problems downloading the articles in the blog.

    I do not know if they realize that the files are Word files.  So when they key on the highlighted titles, a Word file is downloaded to their computers.

    The file name will probably appear on their desktops as a Word executable file.  They must them key or double key on that to bring up the program Word and the file contents.

    It is a little different than most emails, since most of them are just text files in the email content.

     Rosemary's Blessing:

    A Prayer For Growing Old Gracefully

     Lord, Thou knowest better than I myself that I am growing older and will someday be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion.

    Release me from craving to straighten out everybody's affairs. Make me thoughtful but not moody; helpful but not bossy. With my vast store of wisdom, it seems a pity not to use it all; but Thou knowest, Lord, that I want a few friends at the end. Keep my mind free from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point. Seal my lips on my aches and pains; they are increasing, and love of rehearsing them is becoming sweeter as the years go by.

    Bern 5-22-11 

    I dare not ask for improved memory, but for a growing humility and a lessening cock-sureness when my memory seems to clash with the memories of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken.

    Keep me reasonably sweet, for a sour old person is one of the crowning works of the devil. Give me the ability to see good things in unexpected places and talents in unexpected people; and give, O Lord, the grace to tell them so.

     Seventeenth Century Nun’s Prayer
