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.

 

New Years Prayer  by Charlotte Anselmo

 

Isaiah 55, 1-11, All you who are thirsty, come to the water.  (Beautiful reading, one of Isaiah's best)

Psalm. Isaiah 22, You will draw water joyfully, from the springs of salvation.

1 John 5, 1-9, Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is begotten by God

Mark 1, 7-11, One mightier than I is coming.

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

When the decorations of Christmas have been packed away then the work of Christmas begins:

Lord, help us

to find the lost,
to heal those broken in spirit,
to feed the hungry,
to release the oppressed,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among all peoples,
and to make a little music with the heart…

Adapted from Work of Christmas Begins by Howard Thurman
