Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

Come, O Dancing God,

Spirit of Life and Love,

of  Beauty and Diversity,

stir up my soul,

bathe me in your light,

and unleash my own spirit

that I may dance with you

and be light for those around me

and reflect your love to all that I meet this week.

Edited and adapted from a blessing by Fr. Andrew M. Greeley

Who let this Old Geezer out on the roads of Iowa?   Accessories include, Aviana on the helmet (How can I leave my dog at home?); Leis around the neck & on the handle bars about 8-10 strings of beads, all for kids and helpers along the way this day (ala New Orleans Mardi Gras).  The kids love the beads thrown to them.

Laugh uncontrollably,
And never regret anything that made you smile.

Isaiah 8: The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom a light has shone. You have brought them abundant joy and great rejoicing, as they rejoice before you as at the harvest, as people make merry when dividing spoils.
1 Corinthians 1: I urge you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same purpose.
Matthew 4: … Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way to the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles, the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has arisen.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

I was regretting the past
And fearing the future.
Suddenly my Lord was speaking
“My name is I AM.”

He paused.  I waited
He continued,

“When you live in the past
With its mistakes and regrets,
It is hard.  I am not there.
My name is not I WAS.

“When you live in the future,
With its problems and fears,
It is hard.  I am not there.
My name is not I WILL BE.

“When you live in this moment,
It is not hard. I am here.
My name is I AM.”

I Am by Helen Mallicoat

Rosemary’s Blessing:  

Oh, Heavenly Father, 

We thank you for food and remember the hungry.

We thank you for health and remember the sick.

We thank you for friends and remember the friendless.

We thank you for freedom and remember the enslaved.

May these remembrances stir us to service,

That your gifts to us may be used for others.

Amen.
