All the prompts are in order now.
The Prompt: Write a prayer for your child.
My prayer for you, little one, is that you will never forget that you are loved. Even when you are at your lowest, always remember that I am there for you. You can tell me anything, anything at all, and I will not laugh or judge. I can still listen, even if I might not be able to always help. Remember that you are surrounded by so many people who love you so much and are just as willing as I am to help you.
Love yourself. Embrace your strengths. Accept your flaws. You should not be ashamed of yourself or try to change for anyone. Be true to yourself. It might sound cliched, but it is the truth.
Most importantly, above all else, love God. Love the One who made you and loves you more than anyone else. Always obey Him first. Give Him your heart, my darling. It's a decision you will never regret. Trust in God and make Jesus your best friend. Don't let your fears get the best of you. With God on your side, you never have to be afraid of anything.
I pray that God will strengthen, protect and keep you from harm, and help you shine to be the person He created you to be. Wherever life takes you, please don't forget about me. Know you always have a place here. May God bless you with all you will do in your life and keep you from as much pain as possible.
With much love, now and forever,
Your mother
Writing this was a bit surreal. It will be years and years before I can ever show this to a child of my own, but it was nice to think about.
