Rosemary's Blessing

The Christmas Story will always be the story of Emmanuel, of God-with-us, always and everywhere, in the everyday, in the chaos, in the flight into exile, in the love between a man and a woman and in the birth of a child. It is the story of God who heals, empowers and loves us just as we are – in our greatness and our foolishness. As we anticipate the joy, the love and the peace that are God's Christmas gifts to us, let us receive them with gratitude and be sure to unfold them and share them especially where they need to be more visible.

    Lord, support us all the day long, until the shadows lengthen,
    and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed,
    and the fever of life is over, and our work is done.  

    Then in your mercy, grant us a safe lodging, and a holy rest, and peace at the last.
