Rosemary's Blessing

Creator of all the world and lover of each of us,

  • Help me to see the beauty with which you have surrounded me,
  • The colors, the shades, the lights, the shadows, the shapes, the patterns,
  • all the dazzling array of enchantments of the eye to which I usually pay so little attention.
  • Help me to realize that I live in a many splendored land and
  • to enjoy the splendors which you have given me.

    Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

     Christ has no body now on earth but yours,

         no hands but yours,

         no feet but yours,

    Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s

         compassion is to look out to the world,

    Yours are the feet with which Christ is to

         go about doing good,

    Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to  

         bless all people now.

    From a prayer by Teresa of Avila (1515–1582)

    Enlighten those who possess power and money
    that they may avoid the sin of indifference,
    that they may love the common good, advance the weak,
    and care for this world in which we live.
    The poor and the earth are crying out.
    O Lord, seize us with our power and light,
    help us to protect all life,
    to prepare for a better future,
    for the coming of your Kingdom
    of justice, peace, love and beauty.
    Praise be to you!
    Amen.

    Pope Francis – It is part of his important encyclical on saving the sacred Earth, Laudato Sí.
