As I was reflecting on Mother’s Day, some very valuable advice that was given to me by my cousin Sandra came to mind. She said, “Always pray for your daughter, because there is something special about a mother’s prayer.” My daughter who is now 23, was about 11 years old when Sandra spoke those words. Her words of wisdom have always stayed close to my heart.
I know my mother has diligently prayed for me throughout my life. Her prayers for me have made a difference, and they continue to do so. As mother’s, we are so blessed to have the gift of prayer. We can’t be everywhere, we can’t know everything, and we definitely can’t fix everything (although we may sometimes try), but our Lord can. Knowing that He is always present, and that He is never without answers, is what gives us peace as Mom’s.
God’s love covers everything, all the joys and the pains of motherhood. I’m so thankful for His love, because no matter what changes in our lives or the lives of our children, His love will never change. I pray you find never ending strength and hope as you continue to trust God for His best in the lives of your children. He hears your prayers and always has a plan, so never cease to pray for your children.
Happy Mother’s Day! 🌷💛🌷
1 Thessalonians 5:17 (KJB), “Pray without ceasing.”

And Happy Mothers Day to you Dawn!
Blessings,
Homer and Wanda

I agree one of the best things a mother can do is daily to cover their children in prayer. Your post reminded me of this Abraham Lincoln quote: “I remember my mother’s prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.” Happy Mother’s Day, Dawn! 🌺

Amen. A mother’s prayers is powerful. When my son had heart surgery in 2008 in Puerto Rico, a taxi driver told me that to make sure I prayed for my son because I love him the deepest and no one love him as myself. So I should not depend on anyone else to pray for him. His words stuck with me because at the time I was depending on my husband and pastor to pray for him.
I am sure you had a great mother’s day so let the love continues to radiate throughout the week.

That’s so profound what the driver told you. That explains why a mother’s prayer is so special. It’s a blessing we can go to God for ourselves through Christ. We don’t have to rely on anyone else. It has been a wonderful day. Very relaxing too. I will let the love continue through the week! 🌸

Happy Mother’s Day Dawn 💐🤗. I totally agree on praying for your child. I have a few friends that are currently expecting a child and that’s the number one advice I give them. Commit your child to God and continually ask Him to help you raise up the child in His way. There is power in prayer. Thank you for sharing. God bless you. I hope you enjoy this special Mother’s Day 🌷✨
