Pray for Families (The Gift of Mothers)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

As Mother’s Day approaches, say a prayer of thanksgiving for your mother.  Whether she was a saint or a sinner or somewhere in between, it doesn’t matter because she said “yes” to bringing you into the world and YOU are a gift. 

Heavenly Father, you above all knew the value of mothers and thus chose to send your Son into the world through a woman so that He might experience the gift of a loving mother.  Understanding the importance mothers, you designed it so that no child would be born without one.  What a blessing!  Lord, just as you poured abundant grace upon your own mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, please do the same for every mother so that by your grace they may more closely emulate her holy motherhood. And Lord, for those people who no longer have a mother, would you please share yours?  Thank you! May Mary bring the same joy to them that she forever brings to you.

Blessing and glory, wisdom and thanksgiving, honor, power, and might be to our God forever and ever. Amen. Revelation 7:12

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Thank your mother, and/or another mother who has impacted your life. And don’t forget the big hug! Pass it on!
