BLESSED
May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth. –Psalm 115:15
May you be blessed by the laughter and by the tears.
May you be blessed by the courage and by the fear.
May you be blessed by the day and by the night, by the strength of the moon, by the sun’s burning light.
May you be blessed by the storm and by the calm.
May you be blessed by the silence and by the song.
May you be blessed by the struggle and by the peace, by the wilderness road, by the still water’s dream.
May you be blessed by the spring and by the winter.
May you be blessed by the rest and by the hurry.
May you be blessed by the work and by the play, by the gifts you receive, by the gifts you give away.
May you be blessed by the doubts and by the beliefs.
May you be blessed by the joy and by the grief.
May you be blessed by the death and by the birth, by the indwelling love that holds heaven and earth.
Amen.
