A prayer of thanksgiving for all the animals – Mother Theresa of Calcutta
Thank you, Lord for all the animals.
The tiger, the bear, the elephant, the horse the cow and the goat.
You are the shepherd who calls us “your flock.”
Thank you for the birds that sing hymns to you and for the fish that swim in the abys of creation.
Returning home, often weary and tired, our little dog – very happy and wagging his tail – welcomes me, kissing my hands. You have given us so many friends as a gift, Lord!
Amen.
