Animal Blessing

I give thanks for all creatures, great and small.

Those who share their lives with pets know that there is a circle of giving and receiving in the relationship that allows us to be ourselves without concern of being rejected. A beloved poem by Cecil France Alexander pays tribute as a blessing to our animal cohabitants:

All things bright and beautiful,

All creatures great and small,

All things wise and wonderful,

The Lord God made them all.

All animals—domesticated or in the wild—are divinely created beings. We can and do appreciate their uniqueness in a world of wonder. We honor our relationships with them as opportunities to give love freely and without measure or thought of return.

God made the wild animals of the earth of every kind ... And God saw that it was good.—Genesis 1:25
