Rosemary's Blessing:                                  

Gracious God, slow my pace and soften my heart this Christmas. 

Keep me

from rushing through the season, but missing the Way . . .

from decorating the tree, but missing the Light . . .

from wrapping the gifts, but missing the Gift.

Rosemary's Blessing of the Week.

Glance at the sun. See the moon and the stars.
Gaze at the beauty of earth’s greenings.
Now, think.
What delight God gives to humankind
with all these things. . . .
All nature is at the disposal of humankind.
We are to work with it.
For without we cannot survive.

Hildegard of Bingen

Good Karma to you, Kevin, on your next year of college.  It has been delightful having you around this summer.

 

 

 

Rosemary's Blessing

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others.

May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content with yourself just the way you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.
