A blessing

This is a copy of the blessing I will be giving at the second reception.

God our father,
your breath gives life to the world,

we hear your voice in the wind
and in the quiet of our hearts,

Bless my children
with your strength and wisdom.


Give them eyes to behold the sunset.
And allow them to walk in your beauty.

Grant them wisdom to understand
the lessons you teach us in difficulty and in joy.


Make them always ready to come to you
Not as two separate
But as one life joined


Bless their journey
Sheltered by you.
