Rosemary's Blessing

Lord God who is endlessly patient

with our foolish and annoying frailties,

instill in us patience for our fellow humans. 

Help us to keep our temper cool,

our nerves calm,

and our disposition amiable.

    Faithful and loving God, you have lavished us with love.

    On our difficult days

    help us to remember that you are a refuge for those who need shelter and a comfort for those who feel empty and poor in spirit.

    On our joyful days,

    Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

     

    This Advent, let us believe and trust in the broader meaning of the season. 

    Deep faith is a creative energy that opens us to participate in what God wants to do for us in our personal lives and through us in our broken world and fragile Earth.

    The weeks of Advent give us the time to ask: What are the dark places in my life that need God's wisdom, uplifting and light? 

    What's not OK in me? 

    What's preventing me from feeling the love, unity and peace I want and God desires for me? 

    Where do I fall short of witnessing God's inclusive love, mercy and justice? 

    To each of these questions, we say: Come, Lord Jesus, come!

     

    Taken from an Advent Reflection by S. Jean Amore, CSJ, VP for Mission and Academics, Sacred Heart Academy, Hempstead, N.Y.
