Almighty God, heavenly Father, you have blessed us with the joy and care of children: Give us calm strength and patient wisdom as we bring them up, that we may teach them to love whatever is just and true and good, following the example of our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
PS: Let us pray for those who are missing mothers who have passed on.
Your posts often display the wisdom that only mother chemicals can catalyze. Today's no exception.
ReplyDeleteI pray that today, and everyday, the mother love you lavish on us all returns to you a thousand fold! Happy, Happy Mother' Day, Mimi.
