I received a forwarded email the other day from a friend and while I don’t open them very often, I did this one and it was so powerful that I wanted to share it with you. The pictures and music make it even more impressive but in an effort to save time, I will share the words with you. This is the link if you would like to benefit from the whole amazing inspirational message. Make sure you have your audio on.
Irish Blessing
I wish you not a path devoid of clouds,
Nor a life on a bed of roses,
Not that you might never need regret, nor that you should
Never feel pain. No, that is not my wish for you.
My wish for you is:
That you might be brave in times of trial,
When others lay crosses upon your shoulders.
When mountains must be climbed and chasms are to be crossed;
When hope scarce can shine through.
That every gift God gave you might grow along with you.
And let you give the gift of joy to all who care for you.
That you may always have a friend who is worth that name.
Whom you can trust, and who helps you in times of sadness.
Who will defy the storms of daily life at your side.
One more wish I have for you:
That in every hour of joy and pain you may feel God close to you.
This is my wish for you, and for all who care for you.
This is my hope for you, now and forever.

Remember that the people who care about you and really support you are one of the most precious gifts you will ever know. They will be a source of strength as you experience the difficult times in your life.
