    Rosemary's Blessing:

     

     May the Spirit within us
          be a source of healing and consolation.

      May the Spirit within us
          strengthen us when we feel weak,
          warm us when we are cold-hearted,
          bend us when we are stubborn,
          move us when we are uncaring,
          guide us in the way of love.

      May we allow the Spirit within
          to empower us in all do.

      Amen.

    Exodus 22:  Thus says the LORD: "You shall not molest or oppress an alien, for you were once aliens yourselves in the land of Egypt.

    1 Thessalonians 1: And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, receiving the word in great affliction, with joy from the Holy Spirit, so that you became a model for all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.

    Matthew 22: He said to him, "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

    Isaiah 62:  No more will anyone call you Rejected, and your country will no more be called Ruined. You'll be called Hephzibah (My Delight), and your land Beulah (Married), Because God delights in you and your land will be like a wedding celebration.

    1 Corinthians 12:  All these gifts have a common origin, but are handed out one by one by the one Spirit of God. He decides who gets what, and when.

    John 2:  This act in Cana of Galilee was the first sign Jesus gave, the first glimpse of his glory. And his disciples believed in him.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    Thank you Lord for giving me

    The brand new year ahead

    Help me live the way I should

    As each new day I tread.

     

    Give me gentle wisdom

    That I might help a friend

    Give me strength and courage

    So a shoulder I may lend.

     

    The year ahead is empty

    Help me fill it with good things

    Each new day filled with joy

    And the happiness it brings.

     

    Please give the leaders of our world

    A courage born of peace

    That they might lead us gently

    And all the fighting cease.

     

    Please give to all upon this earth

    A heart that’s filled with love

    A gentle happy way to live

    With your blessings from above.
