A SPECIAL PRAYER FOR ALL THE MOMS

Dear Lord,
On this Mother’s day, we bring the moms before you to honor and bless them, even as you have honored and blessed them by giving them children.  Father, we thank and praise you for the wonderful gift that mothers are in all our lives.  Lord, you see the cry of the hearts of these beautiful women that ache for their children who struggle with autism.  You see and know what they go through day in and day out.  Father, in this day we pray a special blessing of renewal and refreshment over each of these mothers.  Lord, we pray that a new wind of strength would blow over them.  We pray that new levels of faith and hope in you would seize their hearts.  Lord, we ask that you would touch each of these moms with a fresh sense of joy over what you will do in the future; both in their lives and in their children’s lives.  May you, the God of all comfort, love, and peace visit each of these mothers with wonderful blessings in this day.
In Jesus’ Name,
