St. Patricks Day Blessing

Today happens to be St. Patricks Day which means many people will be wearing their favorite green clothing. Many will eat corned beef and cabbage and soda bread today. And a lot of Guinness will be consumed as will Irish whiskey and Bailey’s Irish Cream in celebration of St. Patrick.. But food and drink and wearing green is not all St. Patricks Day is about or even the best thing the Irish are famous for giving us.

Everyone loves a reason, almost any reason, to celebrate. Especially after the lockdowns and quarantines of the last couple of years. Someone once said “No matter where you are from, or what your family heritage is, on March 17th EVERYONE is Irish”. And why wouldn’t we want to be Irish? It’s a beautiful country of wonderful loving people. Yet of all the good things our friends the Irish are known for, maybe the best things they’ve given us are their blessings. Good food and fun celebrations are great, but who couldn’t use a good blessing. So today, in honor of St. Patrick, we offer you this:

This blessing is good everyday, not just on March 17. We think this is a rich and wise blessing we offer to you our dear chums. Now honor St. Patrick, and celebrate this day, by passing it on to someone you know who could use a blessing too 🙂
