 Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

 Another fresh new year is here …
     Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
     To love and laugh and give!

This bright new year is given me
     To live each day with zest …
To daily grow and try to be
     My highest and my best!

I have the opportunity
     Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
     And sing more joyful songs!

William Arthur Ward

Rosemary's Blessing: 

Take time to be aware that in the very midst of our busy preparations for the celebration of Christ’s birth in ancient Bethlehem,

Christ is reborn in the Bethlehems of our homes and daily lives.

Take time, slow down, be still, be awake to the Divine Mystery that looks so common and so ordinary yet is wondrously present.
