Happy Mother’s Day…

Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms out there!

Proverbs 31:25-30 ESV “Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and teachings of kindness is on her tongue. She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all”…

Dear Lord,

I lift up to you all the mom’s …

The cherished mom who will be recognized and honored for her unique role. The not forgotten mom who will receive phone calls, texts, flowers, or gifts in the mail. The sleeping mom who got woke up to breakfast in bed, and the shining faces of joy from those who prepared her bountiful offering. The proud mom who will wear her pretty dress and smile to church this morning, for all to see she is adored.

However,

My Father God…I especially lift up to you, the single mom who is worn to a frazzle. The unappreciated mom, whose family feel it’s her job why does she need a special day. The disappointed mom who gave everything she had to her children who consequently grew up spoiled and selfish, not bothering to return her love or their time.

I pray for the battered mom in hiding, the one who prays daily to remain invisible, to the hand of pain and hurt. I pray for the lonely mom longing for a visit or a call. The prideful mom who put herself in a position, no longer knowing how to change the situation without losing face. The barren mom who prays daily to become a mother and the bereaved mom who have children who were returned to you too soon.

Lord, today is a special day in the hearts of women. I ask that you would wrap your loving arms around each and everyone of us. Holy Spirit, make yourself known and felt today so that each of us know whether we are appreciated on earth or not, that we are appreciated and special to you. In your name Lord Jesus I pray. Amen

Isaiah 66:13a ESV “As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you.“

I pray for you a blessed day and God’s love to keep you! Thank you for joining me. 🥰
