    Sirach 3:  My child, conduct your affairs with humility, and you will be loved more than a giver of gifts.   Humble yourself the more, the greater you are,  and you will find favor with God.   

    Hebrews 12:  No, you have approached Mount Zion and the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and countless angels in festal gathering, and the assembly of the firstborn enrolled in heaven, …

    Luke 14:  Rather, when you hold a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind; blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    May an abundance of gratitude burst forth in our minds and hearts as we remember all the blessings in our life.

    May we slow our hurried pace these days so we can be aware of, and enjoy, what we can too easily take for granted.

    May we always be open, willing and ready to share our blessings with others and never forget the God who loves us lavishly and unconditionally.

    And may we remember that our thanksgiving is incomplete until we pay it forward by doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.

    Amen.

    From a  prayer by Sr. Jean Amore CSJ, Sacred Heart Academy, Hempstead, N.Y.
