And the Lord stretched forth His arms and created the animals of the earth.
And He saw that it was good.  And as He gazed upon His creation, He felt
something furry touching His foot.  As He looked down, He saw a small face
look upon His glory.  The Lord bent down to pick up this wiggly little
wonder.  The creature peered into the face of the Lord, and the Lord smiled
and said,"You little one, are one of my finest creations.  Man shall name
you "ferret" but, I shall call you "Love"." As the Lord spoke, the little
creature listened intently.  Then the Lord lifted the little furry creature
up to His Father in heaven, and said, "Little one I am giving you to
mankind, for man will need you to bring love into his heart." The little
creature snuggled all the while in the arms of the Lord, and as the Lord
bent to return the creature to the ground, He said,"Your life on earth will
be short, but during that time you will have touched many hearts bringing
much love and happiness to all you meet, and when that time is over, I will
call you home to be with me." When the Lord finished speaking, the furry
little creature chattered and jumped, as he knew what the Lord had said to
him.  The Lord smiled, shifting His eyes toward the heavens and said,"It is
good."
 
This very special composition was created by a very, very dear friend of
ours Mrs. Karen (Butler) Ackenback and she has given me her permission to
share it with all who care to read it.  The first time she read it to me
was not long after our dear sweet Lil Miss Lucy Lover-B skipped over the
Rainbow Bridge.  I found this prayer, if you will, to be very comforting in
my hours of need.  I and Karen hope this will serve you're needs as well.
God Bless
 
Peace, Joy & Harmony
