Rosemary’s Blessing 

May God protect you

From silly fears and from bitter tears

From foolish fights and from sleepless nights

From excessive needs and from nasty deeds

From self-made hells and from all bad times.

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

 

Thank you Lord for giving me

The brand new year ahead.

Help me live the way I should

As each new day I tread.

                                                                        

Give me gentle wisdom

That I might help a friend.

Give me strength and courage

So a shoulder I may lend.

                                                                                

The year ahead is empty

Help me fill it with good things.

Each new day filled with joy

And the happiness it brings.

                                                                                                                     

Please give the leaders of our world

A courage born of peace

That they might lead us gently

And all the fighting cease.

                                                                                                                

Please give to all upon this earth

A heart that’s filled with love

A gentle happy way to live

With your blessings from above.

Rosemary's Blessing: 

May God bless you with discomfort…
at easy answers, hard hearts,
half-truths ,and superficial relationships.
May God bless you so that you may live
from deep within your heart
where God’s Spirit dwells.

And may God bless you with
enough foolishness
to believe that you can make a difference
in this world, in your neighborhood,
so that you will courageously try
what you don't think you can do, but,
in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

 

God,

Bless anyone who has asked me to pray for them

    and anyone that I have promised to pray for.

Bless anyone that I cannot get along with

    and anyone that cannot get along with me.

Bless the person who has hurt me deeply

    and anyone that I have hurt.

Bless the person that I cannot forgive

    and anyone that cannot forgive me.

Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today

    and to treat all I meet today with dignity.
