A Prayer for Boo

This is the prayer that I gave for Boo, as my baby-girl slipped away.


In the Name of God the Father who created you and all other animals
In the name of Jesus the Son, who spoke of you in his parables and stories
In the name of the Holy Spirit, in whom every creature lives, moves, and has their being
Go now in peace, by dear friend Boo.

May you find rest near rushing waters
May you lie in cool green pastures
And may you warm yourself under the sun that never sets

You have been our constant companion
Our friend and our confidante
Our comfort and our playmate

You have filled our days with love, and given us endless joy
For this, we give thanks to God, who gave you to us

No my dear friend, return to your Maker, who eagerly awaits you
As you eagerly waited for us to return home each day

In the Happy Hunting Grounds, let there be no more pain
Let there be no more suffering
Let there be only light
Light as bright as the day you came into our world

For our help is in the name of the Lord, who made Heaven and Earth, and You.

Bless you and hold you Sweet Baboo
Bless you and hold you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit
For ever and ever,
+AMEN+
