A Mother’s Prayer
Dear God,
Thank You for making me a mother who understands I have tough choices to make and difficult decisions to live with. Strict parenting is a virtue. I strive to perfect. Help me stand firm, yet guide with gentle love. Give me a softness of spirit with just the right amount to balance the harsh realities of motherhood.
Amen
For Mothers of Daughters
Dear God,
Create the will for my daughter to come to You with her problems, feeling safe, loved and cared for, comforted by Your presence. Give her wisdom and show her how to make good choices in her life. Teach her to look within for her very best. Help her realize that You, God, are her strength and guidance. Let her know that enemies will come, but through You, she will always be victorious.
Amen
For Mothers of Sons
Dear God,
I look upon my son and feel complete joy and utter fear. Joy, because this amazing soul leaves me breathless with wonder. Perfect in ways I never dreamed possible. May he be strong in tolerance, patience, love and faith. In a world starving for all these virtues, let his ways be Your shining example for all to see.
Amen
For the Whole Family
Dear Lord,
I ask Your blessings for this family I love and cherish. Protect them from harm, shelter them from evil. Teach them kindness. Show them compassion. Guide their steps and they will follow the path of goodness and light forever more.
Amen
For All Families
Dear God,
Bless the families. The fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, and all who belong to them. For in family we find comfort. Families are the center of love. Bring peace and harmony to the families in Your dominion.
