Prayer for my Sister

“Sister. She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child.”
Barbara Alpert


My incredible, amazing, inspiring sister, I love you with all my heart. This is my prayer for you:
Discern a miracle everyday and hold it in your heart.
Dance with the child inside you, rejoice in letting her lead you.
Let the song of angels fill your ears, and further, be borne in your voice.
When you count your blessings, they surpass the creatures in the sea.
Catching sight of your reflection evokes a smile, and a quiet content.
There is a star in the heavens for every soul you stir.
Keep the company of my love in your loneliest moment and share yours in mine.
Find that failure is the hand of God revealing a new path. Follow fearlessly.
Learn the truth of who you are, -a child of God, and what you can achieve, -absolutely anything. Your hope becomes your dream, becomes your reality, becomes your legacy.
