All that lives must die, and I knew that this day would come, but the reality of death is hard, and I am grieving. Amen
O God, as I have taken care of {Pet's Name} in life, watch over him/her in death. You gave him/her breath; now I entrust him/her to you.

My Beloved God, help me to know the truth from within that, although my pet has passed away, they
live in spirit. Give me the grace to go within my heart and to feel and know this truth so that I do not
doubt. Help me to regain my balance and my enjoyment of life by realizing that we are all infinite spirit
and that my pet is still with me in that living spirit. Help me to take those spiritual gifts that my pet gave
and taught to me and use them to give my life a richer meaning and substance, and to share those
things with others. Thank you for allowing me to care for one of your beloved angels for the time that
we had. Amen.
Beloved God, I feel so lost and alone since the passing of my loving pet. Help me to know that the love I
feel for my pet remains alive and can nurture me through this time of adjustment and through my loss.
Help me to understand that nothing is ever lost and that spirit does not die. When I feel this loss so
deeply, remind me of what my life was before my pet came into my life, so that I can see how much
richer I am now. Help me to draw upon my happy memories with my pet, just as a person draws upon
money in a bank account. The bank of joy is my resource that I can spend to help me get through the
days ahead. Help me to transform my feelings of loss into feelings of wonder and gratitude for having
been so blessed with this precious one in my life. Lord, I am at a loss for words. I am at a loss for love.
Help me to know that I have truly been blessed and that my loss will turn to gain. Amen.
