GOOD BLESSINGS

 

Roses and emeralds,  dollars or power,

   are pennies to a life of good blessing;

Value is measured not in substance,

   but in the Spirit of a well honored blessing.

 

For a life without blessing is a cursed existence,

   where sorrow and despair can reign;

With blessing comes hope and peace of heart,

   in light of the Spirit`s name.

 

There's no finer a gift than to offer a blessing,

   and no better a treasured received;

No healing's complete without "God bless you",

   no illness is better relieved.

 

I wish you good blessing, and a worthy life,

   I wish that God may bless you;

I wish you the blessing of blessing's good blessing,

   and the hope that your blessings continue.
