Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

 

Did I offer peace today?

Did I bring a smile to someone’s face?

Did I say words of healing?

Did I let go of my anger and resentment?

Did I forgive?

Did I love?

There are the real questions.

I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now

will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come.

Rosemary's Blessing: 

May you find truth in the week’s smallest grace,

And hope in the week’s heaviest cross.

May you learn to walk a little bit slowly

And to grow each day in hope and trust.

And may the God of new beginnings

Grant you a week of love and peace.

Rosemary's Blessing:
