A Message from the Earth’s Heart

Pray to Me, My Child

By Liz W. WagnerPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

“Pray to me, my child, and you will never go wanting.”

“What should I pray for?”

“Pray for the ground beneath your feet to keep you ever-stable.

“Pray to be as rooted as a tree as you blow with the wind.

“Pray to be as fluid as the river; as solid as the rock.

“Pray to be as receptive as the flower and as giving as the fruits.

“Pray to know that your strength is as strong as a mountain; your vulnerability as delicate as a child’s first breath.

“Pray to see that your heart is as precious as a rainbow and your breath, your Union with me.

“Pray to me my child, and I will provide for your every need. You shall never go wanting.”
