Rosemary’s Blessing

May you thank the Lord with all your strength
For food and drink and family and friends,

1 Corinthians 2:  I came to you in weakness and fear and much trembling, and my message and my proclamation were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of Spirit and power, so that your faith might rest not on human wisdom but on the power of God.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Make me mindful this day of the Signs of Love all around me:
Of good words spoken, of gentle touch extended,
Of important things that spring from appreciation, and true passion,
Of deeds born of generosity and real understanding.
Grant me the power this day to live with thoughtful intention in my speech, choices, and actions,
So that I may build the habit of living gracefully, with love for the people and experiences that shape my life,
Which is Your Gift of Love to me each day.
Ken Philipps

 A Prayer For Growing Old Gracefully 

Lord, Thou knowest better than I myself that I am growing older and will someday be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion.

Release me from craving to straighten out everybody's affairs. Make me thoughtful but not moody; helpful but not bossy. With my vast store of wisdom, it seems a pity not to use it all; but Thou knowest, Lord, that I want a few friends at the end. Keep my mind free from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point. Seal my lips on my aches and pains; they are increasing, and love of rehearsing them is becoming sweeter as the years go by.

 I dare not ask for improved memory, but for a growing humility and a lessening cock-sureness when my memory seems to clash with the memories of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken.

Keep me reasonably sweet, for a sour old person is one of the crowning works of the devil. Give me the ability to see good things in unexpected places and talents in unexpected people; and give, O Lord, the grace to tell them so.

Amen.
