Dear God,

On this Mother’s Day, we come before you with grateful hearts to lift up all the women in our lives who have mothered and nurtured us in different ways.

We pray for all the mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, and friends who have given of themselves selflessly to love and care for their families and communities. We ask that you bless them with your divine grace, strength, and wisdom to continue to be a source of light and hope for those around them.

For the young girls who are just beginning to discover the joys and challenges of womanhood, we ask that you guide them with your love and show them their worth as your beloved children.

For the mothers in their prime who are juggling the responsibilities of raising children we ask that you grant them the resilience, patience, and energy to navigate the demands of daily life with grace and joy.

For the grandmothers who have lived through many seasons and have accumulated wisdom from their life experiences, we ask that you bless them with health, joy, and peace as they continue to inspire and mentor the generations after them.

We lift up the women who have chosen not to have children. We know that every woman’s journey is unique, and we ask that you bless those who have made this choice with love, joy, and peace. Let us all celebrate the diversity of paths that women can take.

And for those who have lost their mothers or are struggling with infertility or difficult family relationships, we ask that you wrap them in your loving embrace and give them the comfort, healing, and strength they need to face each day.

We thank you, Lord, for the gift of all the women in our lives, and we pray that you continue to guide them in all they do. May they always know how much they are loved and appreciated.

Amen.
