A Prayer for Little Bun

Prayer for a Safe Pregnancy

This life you have given us
is so tiny, fragile, and vulnerable,
safe in the womb of flesh and hope,
yet subject to danger and death.
O God of love, creator of life,
hear our prayer.
We want this baby so much.
Please grant this child of ours
a full term of nurture,
the joy and mystery of life,
and the blessing of your love.
Grant us the fulfillment of our dreams,
a baby to cherish and protect,
a child to teach and guide,
a blessing to our family.
Amen.

I LOVE the words of this prayer so much, in particular 'a full term of nurture' because this is one of the first hurdles that I need to overcome, and also the problem that caused me my Lucas and Chloe.

I am also dying for 'a baby to cherish and protect, a child to teach and guide'... I am desperate to complete the jigsaw puzzle that is my life, which is currently missing a large chunk.
