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.

Saint Terese of Liseaux

    Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

     

    May God give you…
    For every storm, a rainbow,
    For every tear, a smile,
    For every care, a promise,
    And a blessing in each trial.
    For every problem life sends,
    A faithful friend to share,
    For every sigh, a sweet song,
    And an answer for each prayer.

    An Irish Prayer
