A simple prayer for the sweetest girl

May the angels protect you;

Trouble neglect you;
And heaven accept you when it's time to go home.

May you always have plenty;
Your glass never empty;
And know if your belly, you're never alone.

May your tears come from laughing;
Find friends worth having;
With every year passing they'll mean more than gold.

May you win but stay humble;
Smile more than grumble;
And know when you stumble, you're never alone.

Never alone, never alone!
I'll be in every beat of your heart when you face the unknown.
Wherever you fly, this isn't goodbye.
My love will follow you,
Stay with you;
Baby, you're never alone

Well I have to be honest,
As much as I want it,
I'm not gonna promise the cold winds won't blow.

So when hard times have found you
And your fear surrounds you;
Wrap my love around you, you're never alone.

My love will follow you,
Stay with you;
Baby, you're never alone. 

 

Papa God, protect sweet Juliet as she grows. May she never stop singing "Baby Jesus, I love you! I love you! You are my savior, everyday!" as she walks down the streets of Busia. Provide exactly what she needs so that she may always have enough. May her smile never fade. As I leave this place with the probability of never seeing sweet Juliet again, wrap her in your love so that she knows that she is never alone. Rather than goodbye, it is simply a see you later until we are home with you Father God. As Juliet experiences trials and struggles, I pray that she learns to put her trust in you. That she has nothing to fear. 

Papa God, I pray that in my time being here, in the times that she has tugged on my hand to let me know she is there or in the times where she would whisper "nakupenda" as we say goodbye, that I was a glimpse of your love. I pray that she could see how much you love her through the way that I have shown love to her.
