Wisdom 18:   Your people awaited the salvation of the just and the destruction of their foes.

Hebrews 11:  Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen.

Luke 12:  Gird  your loins and light your lamps and be like servants who await their master's return  from a wedding  ready to open immediately when he comes and knocks.

Rosemary's Blessing:  

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.

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

    Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

    Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

    Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

    Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

    You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.

    Glance at the sun. See the moon and the stars.
    Gaze at the beauty of earth’s greenings.

    with all these things. . . .
    All nature is at the disposal of humankind.
    We are to work with it.
    For without we cannot survive.
