My Anniversary Prayer May 20, 2017

May 20, 2017 by Jack Emmott 4 Comments

Dear Lord – Your Son’s first miracle was transforming water into wine at a Wedding at Cana. You sending Dorothy to me was and is nothing short of a true miracle in my life. She is the best part of me. How blessed I am to share my earthly journey with her. For in her touch, her embrace, her words, her smile and her glance I see You and Your everlasting love for me every day. Before our marriage we sat together in the glow of Your grace with Grandmother Emmott. At age 23 I had the trust in You to propose to her on Uncle Army’s pier on a tributary of Lake Houston. Praise to You, Lord, for our marriage 45 years ago today. For in that sacrament, all of the broken pieces of my body from polio were healed by Your love through her, my bride, my angel and my best friend. Amen

If you like this prayer, please share.
