A Mother's Prayer
A Mother's Photo Reflection
I've prayed over this wild gang a long time!
Good times were had!
These fellows have stuck together over the years!
And some how our daughter managed to stay very feminine.
And was very thankful when God finally sent her a sister!
May 12-13
Happy Mother's Day to those of you who are mothers, those who are about to become mothers and to some very special people who have mothered without having children of their own. May this song bless you today and would you think of some children to be the recipients of such a prayer.
I spoke with a friend this week who was grieving, because she came to know the Lord later in life and didn't have the opportunity to train up her children in the way of the Lord when they were young. She is passionate for Christ now. Her children see the transformation, her grandchildren are the cherished recipients of her loving touch and prayers, and God is using her in her church and community to be a light for Christ. There should be no regrets, for she is getting on with His business, making the most of each day.
Tell a child of God about their Father's love today. Say thanks to a mother who prays!
A Mother's Prayer (hannah's Song) lyrics
A Mother’s Prayer (HANNAH'S SONG) Words by Rachel Aldous
Music by John Mandeville
Verse:
My sweet baby on loan from above.
No better treasure could I more love.
I stand here beside your bed as I pray
I lay my hand on your head and I say:
Chorus:
May you grow up to serve Him all of your days.
May He lead you and guide you in all of your ways.
May His hand bless your future with friendships that last.
May you cherish your youth and not grow up too fast
Verse:
I stare in wonder at your tiny frame.
Just to think that God knows you by name.
He knows every hair on your beautiful head.
He knows your thoughts before they are said.
Chorus:
Prayer:
May God grant you peace in the midst of a storm.
May God give you strength even when you’re forlorn.
May you answer the door when Jesus comes knocking.
May wisdom guide when your mouth is talking.
May discretion protect you and keep you pure.
May you never stumble or fall for a lure.
May your heart remain humble to the very end.
May uprightness and truth be what you defend.
May the world not ensnare or change who you are.
May the light that's within you shine like the stars.
May angels surround you body, spirit, mind.
May favor and peace be yours to find.
May rejection and pain never reach you.
May your spirit grow bold for what you’re called to.
Singing:
As you rest in God’s care I will rest, too.
Knowing that Jesus is watching over you.
Amen
