Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

 

Glance at the sun. See the moon and the stars.
Gaze at the beauty of earth’s greenings.
Now, think.
What delight God gives to humankind
with all these things. . . .
All nature is at the disposal of humankind.

We are to work with it.

 

Hildegard of Bingen

Rosemary's Blessing: 

 Oh, Lord,

Lent goes by too quickly, as does my Life.

Help me to take advantage of all the opportunities You give Me.

Don't let me be so caught up in the Demands of the Day,

The Phone, the Doorbell, The Computer

That I lose Touch with You and the

Invitation to Love which You Always offer Me.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

“A new year is unfolding—like a blossom with petals curled tightly concealing the beauty within.
Lord, let this year be filled with the things that are truly good—with the comfort of warmth in our relationships, with the strength to help those who need our help and the humility and openness to accept help from others.
As we make our resolutions for the year ahead, let us go forward with great hope that all things can be possible—with Your help and guidance.”

Rosemary's Blessing of the Week.

Life is not a journey to the grave

With the intention of arriving safely

In a pretty and well preserved body,

But rather to skid in broadside,

Thoroughly used up,

Totally worn out,

And loudly proclaiming

—WOW—What a Ride!
