A
Mother's Day Prayer
Mother
of all mother's, hear our prayer
this
day for the protection and blessing
of
all mothers, young and old.
You
who hold the seed in the warmth and darkness
until
it knows to seek the sunlight.
You
whose winds carry the rains across the vast
arching
sky, spilling it down to the thirsty lands.
You
in whose arms we rest in at the end of the day,
in
comfort and peace, we call you!
Hear
our words of praise for the mothers of
the
world.
We
call your blessings down to the women
in
our family circle and to those we love as family.
We
ask that you help guide them in the raising
their
children.
Help
them feel your love, help to replenish
their
stores of energy, patience, and love.
Remind
them we are grateful for their love
and the hard work they put in
to raise us
through
the ages.
All
of these children are our children,
they
are the joy bringers of the world.
As
all is connected, we too are one.
What
befalls the smallest, befalls the largest.
Mother
of all creation, as we bless those mothers
nearest
us, open our hearts so that no child is
is
left wanting.
By
our love and our efforts, may we be
those
who honor mothers, as a people who help
their
children thrive.
As
a people thrice blessed with happy children,
happy
families, and health to both.
We
ask for the boundless outpouring of your
love
into our lives. Mother of the world,
with
your blessing may we all grow in our capacity
to
love unconditionally, to nurture where
there
is need, and lastly, to tend the fruits of
our
creation!
Blessed
are the Mothers!!
