Trinity Sunday, May 26, 2024

Deuteronomy 4:  This is why you must now know, and fix in your heart, that the LORD is God in the heavens above and on earth below,  and that there is no other.

Romans 8:  For those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.  For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a Spirit of adoption, through whom we cry, "Abba, Father!"

Matthew 28: And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.

Rosemary's Blessing:
 

In Flanders fields the poppies blow 

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place: and in the sky

The larks still bravely singing fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

 

We are the dead: Short days ago,

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

Loved and were loved: and now we lie

In Flanders fields!

 

Take up our quarrel with the foe!

To you from falling hands we throw

The torch, Be yours to bear it high!

If ye break faith with us who die

We shall not sleep tho’ poppies blow

In Flanders Field.

 

In Flanders Fields  By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915 during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

    May the blessing of the rain be on you—
    the soft sweet rain.
    May it fall upon your spirit
    so that all the little flowers may spring up,
    and shed their sweetness on the air.
    May the blessing of the great rains be on you,
    may they beat upon your spirit
    and wash it fair and clean,
    and leave there many a shining pool
    where the blue of heaven shines,
    and sometimes a star.

    Ezekiel 34: Thus says the Lord God: From now on, I myself am the shepherd.  As shepherds go after their flocks when they get scattered, I’m going after my sheep.   I’ll rescue them from all the places they’ve been scattered. 

    James:  You can no more show me your works apart from your faith, than I can show you my faith apart from my works.  Faith and works, works and faith—they fit together hand in glove.

    Luke 17: Whenever you did one of these things to the least of my sisters and brothers—that was me.  You did it to me.

    O God, when I have food,
    help me to remember the hungry;
    When I have work,
    help me to remember the jobless;
    When I have a home,
    help me to remember those who have no home at all;
    When I am without pain,
    help me to remember those who suffer,
    And remembering,
    help me to destroy my complacency;
    bestir my compassion,
    and be concerned enough to help;
    By word and deed,
    those who cry out for what we take for granted.
    Amen.
