To My Special Nephew on his Baptism

by Mary Pagdati
(Nicosia, CYPRUS)

The day of your Baptism marks the beginning of a path;
His light has been shed upon you - His Holy Spirit rests in your heart.
So walk in peace my little Nephew, along this predestined path;
For in His Holy Book your name has been written - in this world you have a part.

May your life be filled with Heavenly treasures;
His favour and mercy be on your journey each day;
May you grow to see the world in humility with His gracious eyes;
For you are now a new creature - your spirit and soul have been baptized.
