In celebration of my granddaughter Lilla Grace Rumsey’s First Birthday
March 17, 2012
A Prayer by Saint Patrick – He was taken from his homeland of Great Britain as a slave to Ireland. After escaping he returned to Ireland as an evangelist and church planter. Through his influence all of Ireland was touched with the Gospel. To the people who had held him in bondage he brought freedom in Christ.

I establish myself today in:
The POWER of God to guide me,
The MIGHT of God to uphold me,
The WISDOM of God to teach me,
The EYE of God to watch over me,
The EAR of God to hear me,
The WORD of God to speak to me,
The HAND of God to protect me,
The WAY of God lie before me,
The SHIELD of God to shelter me,
The HOSTS of God to defend me,
Christ WITH me,
Christ BEFORE me,
Christ BEHIND me,
Christ WITHIN me,
Christ BENEATH me,
Christ ABOVE me,
Christ at my RIGHT,
Christ at my LEFT,
Christ in BREADTH,
Christ in LENGTH,
Christ in HEIGHT,
Christ in the HEART of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the MOUTH of every man who speaks of me,
Christ in the ear of every man who who hears me,
Confident in Christ.
