Rosemary's Blessing:  

 

Welcome to the New Year

As you would a friend;

One who brings twelve shining gifts

To last until the year’s end.

Harmony with others,

Faith in each new day;

All the kindness you can spare,

Goodwill in words you say.

Compassion for earth’s creatures,

And hope for all in need;

Make peace with all of nature,

Makes tolerance your creed,

Thoughtfulness and sharing,

Love spread far and near;

A thankfulness for living

To end a perfect year.

 

Praise for the New Year by Sheila Forsyth

Becky got a deal on all this classroom & office furniture at a local college closing down their classrooms and going on totally line.

 

Rosemary's Blessing:

The Christmas Story will always be the story of Emmanuel, of God-with-us, always and everywhere, in the everyday, in the chaos, in the flight into exile, in the love between a man and a woman and in the birth of a child. 

It is the story of God who heals, empowers and loves us just as we are – in our greatness and our foolishness. 

As we anticipate the joy, the love and the peace that are God's Christmas gifts to us, let us receive them with gratitude and be sure to unfold them and share them especially where they need to be more visible.

True? 

What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it dry up 

like a raisin in the sun?

Or fester like a sore —

And then run?

Does it stink like rotten meat?

Or crust and sugar over–

Like a syrupy sweet?

 

Maybe it just sags

like a heavy load.

 

Or does it explode?
