The Prayerful Pause - May 4

This Sunday, May 8 is Mother's Day! Let’s pause and thank God for all who mother us and pray for them as well. Here are a few prayer points to help us pray.

  • Thank God for the mothers who raised us and also for all the women who have mothered us over the years in one way or another.

  • Thank God for those who mothered us in the home and for those who mothered us in the faith.

  • Thank God for all the women who have mothered us, nurtured us, taught us, prayed for us, encouraged us, and given us wise counsel and guidance.

  • Pray for those who long to be mothers and for those who grieve the loss or absence of children.

  • Pray for those who are missing mothers that have passed away or who are absent.

  • Pray that God will provide wisdom, encouragement, and strength to all the women who mother others every day.

  • Union is filled to the brim with mighty women who mother others in such amazing ways! Thank God for all who mother in the Family of God.

Indeed, God has used and continues to use women to love, nurture, and guide us. Thanks be to God for the mothering care of the mighty women in our lives. Amen!
