Prayer for Mothers
Heavenly Father,
On this special day dedicated to mothers, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude and love. We thank You for the precious gift of motherhood, for the women who have selflessly embraced this calling, and for the countless ways they reflect Your nurturing and unconditional love.
Today, we lift up all mothers, both near and far, and ask for Your abundant blessings upon them. Grant them strength and wisdom as they navigate the joys and challenges of motherhood. Fill their hearts with joy and patience as they care for their children, for they are the vessels through which Your love is made manifest in our lives.
Amen.
