A Mother’s Day Prayer

A Mother’s Day Prayer

On Mother’s Day, we have an opportunity to praise God and offer our thanks and blessings to our mothers for giving us life, remembering that God chose each of our mothers to be a special vessel where he formed us.

“You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!  Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born.  Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!” Psalm 139: 13-19 (NLT)

Thank you, Jesus, for giving me my child. I have not been a perfect mother, but you had a perfect plan. This Mother’s Day I celebrate you, Lord, my mother, my daughter, and the joys and challenges of being a mother.

Mother’s Day Blessings,
Bonnie & Don Sennott
