LITTLE ANGELS Lord, the Holy Spirit is within us full of love given to us at conception. Dear Father, you know each and every one of us before we were even formed in our mother’s womb. God protect us from all evil trying to destroy our little angels from being born on this earth. Lord, forgive those who are doing the devil’s deeds. These abortion laws the leaders of this country have written are going against the true Ten Commandments of God. Some of us just follow the nonsense of aborting innocent babies and people are blinded by evil and do not see that this is murder. Father, in your love for the little angels, protect against the wickedness of the devil, those helpless little ones to whom you have given the gift of life. Touch with pity the hearts of those women pregnant in our world today. Help them to see that the little angels they carry are made in your image, as well as theirs, made for eternal life. Dispel their fear of selfishness and give them true womanly hearts to love their babies and give them birth. We also ask, for the doctors and officials of this country to stop the abortion laws. Become pro-life. We ask this through Jesus Christ, your son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
