A Prayer for Those Who Live Alone
I live alone, dear Lord, stay by my side,
In all my daily needs be Thou my guide,
Grant me good health, for that indeed, I pray, to carry on my work from day to day.
Keep me pure my mind, my thoughts, my every deed, let me be kind, unselfish in my neighbour's need.
Spare me from fire, from flood, malicious tongues, from thieves, from fear, and evil ones.
If sickness or an accident befall, then humbly, Lord, I pray, hear Thou my call, and when I'm feeling low, or in despair, lift up my heart and help me in my prayer.
I live alone, dear Lord, yet have no fear, because I feel Your Presence ever near.

Happy Easter
When the earth sings with nature
and the sky above feels close enough to touch,
let us take time to give thanks and praise
for the precious miracle of life.
May the wonder that is Easter
fill your spirit with new hope,
and may the love it brings
wrap itself around your heart.
Blessings to you on Easter.

Moments
When the night is silent
and it's just me and the lazy moon,
When the sun breaks free
and kisses my face
with morning light,
When I hear a favourite song,
read an inspring line,
laugh at something simple,
or learn something new,
I privately save the moments
until I can share them
again with you,
You are never further away than my heartbeat,
but I still miss you.

An Old Irish Wish
May the raindrops fall lightly on your brow.
May the soft winds freshen your spirit.
May the sunshine brighten your heart.
May the burdens of the day rest lightly upon you,
And may God enfold you in the mantle of His Love.
