A Benediction during the Pandemic

Here’s a blessing/benediction written for our current pandemic season. It comes from Emily Swan and Ken Wilson of Solus Jesus.

Pandemic Benediction No 3

I bless you with joy
May you find moments of laughter and bliss
In the midst of suffering and distress
May you cherish those times and may they sustain you

I bless you with the fruits of humility
May your humble and sacrificial actions
Be instrumental in preserving your community
And loving your neighbors

I bless you with peace
In the face of financial hardship and uncertainty
May you know the faithful presence of the God who provides

Go in peace.

Wash your hands.

Love your neighbors.

You are not alone.
