Prayer
for Mothers
Lord on this Mother’s Day we offer all the
mothers to you. Bless each one them with good health, peace of mind and
happiness.
For the younger mothers grant them the energy
and vigour to care for their children. Grant them the wisdom to lead their
children in the path of righteousness and away from sins. For the older mothers
bless them with good and caring children who will be with them in times of their
need especially in sickness and dotage
Lord give your special blessing to single
mothers who are burdened with bringing up their children all alone without money,
without shelter and without the company of helpful relatives and friends.
Also lord shower your blessings abundantly
on mothers who are sick and dying. Give them the courage to accept their
illness with full trust in your mercy and compassion. Bless mothers who are
rejected by their children, those lonely and lingering in nursing homes and
those waiting to meet you in death in hospitals and in their homes.
Lord we pray for all the mothers in the
world wherever they are and whatever state they may be. Grant them lasting
happiness with their loved ones. Mother Mary, you are our heavenly mother and
you know the plight of our own mothers on earth. Be with them to guide and
guard them always in everything they do.
We ask these through Christ our Lord
