A Mother's Prayer

May God grant you peace in the midst of a storm.
May God give you strength even when you’re forlorn.
May you answer the door when Jesus comes knocking.
May wisdom guide when your mouth is talking.
May discretion protect you and keep you pure.

(A Mother's Prayer by Rachel Aldous)

May you never stumble or fall for a lure.
May your heart remain humble to the very end.
May uprightness and truth be what you defend.
May the world not ensnare or change who you are. 
May the light that's within you shine like the stars.
May angels surround you body, spirit, mind.
May favor and peace be yours to find. 
May rejection and pain never reach you.
May your spirit grow bold for what you’re called to.
May you grow up to serve Him all of your days
May He lead you and guide you in all of your ways
May His Hand bless your future with friendships that last.
May you cherish your youth and not grow up too fast.
As you rest in God’s care I will rest, too.
Knowing that Jesus is watching over you.

Amen
Love you so much baby!
