Happy Mother’s day
A Motherhood & Sisterhood Prayer
BY Dorcas C. Chandler--2019
Dear Jesus, thank you for your tender care for us being mothers and sisters. Lord, mothers and sisters have two things in common by your divine nature: we both are built to carry the weight of children.
Lord, as mothers with heart felt love, care and concern, we ask you to please help us continue to cast all of our cares upon You when it comes to rearing our children in a Godly home and safe environment. Our attachments to our children are very strong and we always want what is best for them. Sometimes our best is not Your best, or even Your plan for their lives. We struggle sometimes with Your unknown plan, because we are carriers by your divine nature.
So, on this Mother’s Day our deepest desire is to surrender our will to Your will. You knew our children before they were formed in the belly or attached to our hearts. Our prayer today as mothers is: God, thank you for our precious gift(s) You gave us and we celebrate You for choosing us to be called ‘Mother.’
My name is Sister; we have many children from many families. We did not birth any of our own children, but today we are carriers also of children—we were built like that—woman hood. We carry our many children in our hearts and in our spirits. We watch over our many children like a mother hen, but today Jesus, we too must surrender the most precious prize possessions as a carrier of children, to you.
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
Jeremiah 29:11
