In the stillness of my mind I hear God say "you are my beloved" I created you in your mother's womb I planted your feet on earth to grow and learn I gave you a heart to expand in compassion and caring to reach out and touch one another in word, deed and action I gave you not just a body but a soul and a spirit I gave you life and the ability to make choices Choose your path wisely, tread it carefully, honor each day for the gift it is
