    Rosemary's Blessing

    Love changes everything and everyone, and when we love, “love never lets us be the same.” With every thought and act of love we change ourselves and others.

    As we learn from Jesus, love is a people thing. It’s personal, individual and unique. No one can do the work of love for me. There’s no app, website or program. We just have to do it. With each loving thought, word and deed, we bring about the Realm of God right here and right now. Sometimes it’s sweet and patient; sometimes it takes us out of our comfort zone, takes courage and can be exhausting.

    From  A Lenten Reflection by Sister Jean Amore, CSJ

    Valentine  Gift of Love

    Make me mindful this day of the Signs of Love all around me:

    Of good words spoken, of gentle touch extended,

    Of important things that spring from appreciation, and true passion,

    Of deeds born of generosity and real understanding.

    Grant me the power this day to live with thoughtful intention in my speech, choices, and actions,

    So that I may build the habit of living gracefully, with love for the people and experiences that shape my life,

    Which is Your Gift of Love to me each day.

    What is success?

    To laugh often and much;

    to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;

    to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

    to appreciate the beauty;

    to find the best in others;

    to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;

    to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.

    This is to have succeeded!

    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.

    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.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Loving God,

    As I journey into the unknown territory of a new year…

    As I hurt in the process of loving those I dislike or find difficult…

    As I learn to accept my strengths, weaknesses and mistakes…

    As I keep searching for the truth in times of confusion, doubt and conflict…

    As I try to be a voice for the voiceless and powerless…

    As I strive to live and witness your inclusive love, compassion, forgiveness, justice and peace…

    As I do the work of the Christmas message and make Christ visible to others…

    Walk closely with me, my God.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Lord of all,

    Bless our families.

    Be they formed by blood or by circumstance,

    Make them holy.

     

    May we find you

    In our relationships.

    In our marriages, in our families, in our households, in our communities, in our global humanity.

     

    May we look across all that divides us

    And see family, and embrace as a family does, and love as a family ought to.

     

    For where two or three gather in your name. There are you.

    Amen.
