Blessing

I found the Lenten blessing in the Episcopal church yesterday to be quite profound:

Let your memory provide no shelter for grievance;
your heart no harbor for malice;
your tongue no accomplice for judgment.
May the blessing of God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit be with you now and always.
Amen

What I found most profound is that this is not an exhortation, but is rather a blessing, indicating that God will be the one doing those things to us. How interesting and comforting.
