Theme: Blessing
“Blessing, rightly understood, is the invisible bloodstream pulsating through the universe—alive and life-giving. ‘Just to live is holy,’ says the great Jewish sage Abraham Joshua Heschel. ‘Just to be is a blessing.’
‘Bless what there is, for being.’ Whatever it be, bless it because it exists; you need no other reason. With those words the poet W. H. Auden summarizes ‘the singular command’ with which the universe confronts us humans.”
– David Steindl-Rast, 99 Blessings

Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless God's holy name.
Bless the Lord, all God's hosts,
God's ministers that do God's will.
Bless the Lord, all God's works,
in all places of God's dominion.
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
