Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

 

Humankind, full of all creative possibilities,

is God’s work.

Humankind alone is called to assist God.

Humankind is called to co-create.

With nature’s help,

humankind can set into creation all that is necessary and life-sustaining.

Rosemary’s Blessing

God,

Bless anyone who has asked me to pray for them

    and anyone that I have promised to pray for.

Bless anyone that I cannot get along with

    and anyone that cannot get along with me.

Bless the person who has hurt me deeply

    and anyone that I have hurt

Bless the person that I cannot forgive

    and anyone that cannot forgive me.

Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today

    and to treat all I meet today with dignity

Unknown

Rosemary's Blessing

When the decorations of Christmas have been packed away
then the work of Christmas begins:

Lord, help us

to find the lost,
to heal those broken in spirit,
to feed the hungry,
to release the oppressed,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among all peoples,
and to make a little music with the heart…

Adapted from Work of Christmas Begins by Howard Thurman

Rosemary's Blessing

May you treasure wisely this jeweled, gilded time

And cherish each day as an extra grace

Whose heedless loss would be a tragic crime.

In today’s tasks may you find God’s tender face

And may the Lord of the Dance bless you

As He invites you to the dance of the hollowed present.
