Rosemary's Blessing:

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.

 Samuel F. Pugh

Wisdom 12:  And you taught your people, by these deeds, that those who are just must be kind;
and you gave your children good ground for hope that you would permit repentance for their sins.
Romans 8:  The Spirit comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes with inexpressible groanings.
Matthew 13:  Jesus proposed another parable to the crowds, saying: “The kingdom of heaven may be likened to a man who sowed good seed in his field.  While everyone was asleep his enemy came and sowed weeds all through the wheat, and then went off.

Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week:  

May the sun shine bright on your joyous days

And the rain refresh you through peaceful nights

And prepare you for heaven’s great delights.

Hold you in the palm of her hand.

Rosemary's Blessing:

May God bless you so that

to comfort them and turn their pain into joy.

The Status of The Hip:

1.  Been off pain meds since Tuesday.  Not because of being macho.  Just no pain.

2.  The physical therapist says the therapy is going so good that probably Monday we will get rid of the walker and use a cane to walk with.

3.  I was told one hour of being up, one hour of rest.  So true.  After an hour sitting up, I am exhausted and can sleep an hour.  In fact, I am delighted that the exhaustion, the trembles, the cold to the bone feeling, and the dizziness at the end of the hour has gone away a day or so ago.   

4.  Thanks for everything, the food, the special, community blessed shawl, and the affirmation.
