Reminder for the 3rd Sunday in Lent, March 23, 2025

Exodus 3:  God replied, “I am who am.”  Then he added, “This is what you shall tell the Israelites: I AM sent me to you.”

1 Corinthians 10:  These things happened as examples for us, so that we might not desire evil things, as they did.

Luke 13:  ‘Sir, leave it for this year also, and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the future.  If not you can cut it down.’”

    Rosemary's Blessing:
     

    What good did it do when you frowned?  Let me ask:

    Did it help you at all to accomplish your task?

    Did it lighten your burden or help you along?

    Did the frown that you wore make a right out of wrong?

     

    What good did it do to be grouchy today?

    Did your surliness drive any trouble away?

    Did you cover more ground than you usually do?

    Because of the grouch that you carried with you?

     

    If not, what’s the use of a grouch or a frown?

    If it won’t smooth a path or a grim trouble down?

    If it doesn’t assist you, it isn’t worth while:

    Your work may be hard, but just do it and smile.
