prayer of gratitude





Father, you gave me an angel.
Straight from heaven,
born on earth,
this child rests here in my arms,
purity personified,
the essence of perfection.
Mere hours old, already she has filled our lives
with joy and light and love.
One tiny emissary of peace,
one unblemished hope
for tomorrow's happiness.
Praise to you, Father,
for this most precious gift you've shared.
Pleas to you, Father,
for aid in raising her to be
always
as self-contented as she is today.-- by Jayne Jaudon Ferrer
