Praying for Mothers

Heavenly Father, we are grateful for the gift of mothers! Today we rise up and call them blessed! Give all mothers the strength and health required to perform all of their obligations as Christian mothers. Fill them with deep affection for their husbands and children. Grant all of our families Your Holy Spirit, so that we grow together from day to day in Your love and that we order and shape our lives with wisdom according to Your will. Make us worthy examples of Christian mothers, and let many see in our homes the joy of families in which father, mother, and children dwell together in Christ.

Continue to assure us of Your grace through Christ, our Lord and Savior, who honored His mother in the very hour in which He gave His life on the cross for us and all men. Thank you, Lord, for the gift of children and motherhood. Amen.
