Blessed Are You who take time to listen to difficult speech,
for you help us to know that if we persevere we can be understood.

Blessed Are You who walk with us in public places, and ignor the stares of strangers,
for in your companionship we find havens of relaxation.

Blessed Are You who stand beside us as we enter and untried ventures,
for our failures will be outweighed by the times when we suprise ourselves and you.

Blessed Are You who ask for our help,
for our greatest need is to be needed.

Blessed Are You who help us with the graciousness of Christ,
who did not bruise the reed and quench the flax,
for often we need the help we can not ask for.

Blessed Are You when, by all these things you assure us that
the things that make us individuals is not in our peculiar
muscles, nor in our wounded nervous systems, nor in our
difficulties in learning, but in the God-given self which no
infirmity can confine

Rejoice And be Exceedingly Glad, and know that you give us
reassurances that could never be spoken in words,
for you deal with us as Christ dealt with all his children.

God Bless
Love Betty MacPhee
