Joshua 5:  Today I have removed the reproach of Egypt from you.

2 Corinthians 5:   Brothers and sisters: Whoever is in Christ is a new creation: the old things have passed away: behold, new things have come.

Luke 13:  But now we must celebrate and rejoice, because your brother was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.

The old streets of Honfleur and someone we know

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

Exodus 3:  The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.

1 Corinthians 10:   These things happened as examples for us, so that we might not desire evil things, as they did.

Luke 13:  Sir, leave it for this year also, and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the future.

Stavanger, Norway

 

 

Rosemary's Blessing:  

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others.

May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content with yourself just the way you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.

 

St. Terese of Liseaux

 

 

 

Deuteronomy 26:  Therefore, I have now brought you the firstfruits of the products of the soil which you, O Lord, have given me.

Romans 10:   For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Luke 4:  Filled with the Holy Spirit, Jesus returned from the Jordan and was led by  the Spirit into the desert for forty days, to be tempted by the devil.
