Rosemary's Blessing: 

What Is Success

by Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and
the affection of children;
To earn the approbation of honest critics and endure
the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To give of one's self;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and
sung with exultation;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived –
This is to have succeeded.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    Risen Jesus, help us to be human expressions of the God you proclaimed: a God who is gracious and merciful, never gets angry and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

    May we know deeply God's great love for us, and like God, lean toward those suffering, oppressed and poor.

  • Reminder for the 3rd Sunday in Lent, March 3, 2024

    Exodus 20: In those days, God delivered all these commandments: “I, the LORD am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt,  that place of slavery.

    1 Corinthians 1: For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.

    John 2:  He made a whip out of cords and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen, and spilled the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables, and to those who sold doves he said, “Take these out of here, and stop making my Father’s house a marketplace.”

    Zephaniah 3:  Jerusalem will be told: "Don't be afraid. Dear Zion, don't despair. Your God is present among you, a strong Warrior there to save you.

    Philippians 4:  Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

    Luke 3:  But John intervened: "I'm baptizing you here in the river. The main character in this drama, to whom I'm a mere stagehand, will ignite the kingdom life, a fire, the Holy Spirit within you, changing you from the inside out.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    I asked God for strength, that I might achieve.
    I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey …

    I asked for health, that I might do great things.
    I was given infirmity, that I might do better things …

    I asked for riches, that I might be happy.
    I was given poverty, that I might be wise …

    I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men.
    I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God …

    I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life.
    I was given life, that I might enjoy all things …

    I got nothing I asked for—but everything I had hoped for.
    Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.

    I am, among men, most richly blessed”

    ― Confederate soldier
