Dear Father,
My heart is grateful to You for the privilege of being a mother. Thank you for entrusting me to teach my children Your ways. Help me, Lord, to look to You for encouragement when mothering is hard and my heart is disheartened. Cause me to turn to You, Father, rather than the attitudes and escapes of the world. Forgive me for the ways I’ve failed You and my children at times. Strengthen me to live out my faith before them in a way that softens their hearts and draws them to You. Lead me in praying for my children and to trust You to work in their lives, even when they seem far away from You and me.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
