Rosemary’s Blessing:

Be the One

Jesus, thank you for loving me so much.
Help me to love others as you do.
When someone is lonely, help me to be the one to be kind.
When others are left out, help me to be the one to include them.
When someone is sad, help me be the one to bring joy.
Show me your face in every person I meet.
Let me be the one to console You and my neighbor,
with kindness, a smile, prayers and love.
Give me courage to “be the one”
who builds up the body of Christ today. Amen.

by Sister Mary Ann Zuberbueler

Rosemary's Blessing

 

Thank you Lord for giving me

The brand new year ahead.

Help me live the way I should

As each new day I tread.

 

Give me gentle wisdom

That I might help a friend.

Give me strength and courage

So a shoulder I may lend.

 

The year ahead is empty

Help me fill it with good things

Each new day filled with joy

And the happiness it brings.

 

Please give the leaders of our world

A courage born of peace

That they might lead us gently

And all the fighting cease.

 

Please give to all upon this earth

A heart that’s filled with love

A gentle happy way to live

With your blessings from above.
