Happy Mother's Day.

 A Mother’s Blessing

For Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day—to the hands that held us fast,

To the heart that loved us through the shadow and the blast.

To the knees that bowed in prayer when we could not pray,

To the voice that spoke of Jesus, come what may.

Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. (Proverbs 31:28)

A mother’s love is like a thread of grace

Stitched through the fabric of our days.

Not perfect, but persistent; not weak, but strong,

A shelter in the winter, a refuge and a song.

She taught us how to walk and how to pray,

How to trust the Lord and find His way.

She wiped our tears and bound our little scars,

And pointed us to Jesus, the Morning Star.

“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast?” Yet even if she could, I will not forget you. (Isaiah 49:15)

So bless her, Lord, this day and every day.

Renew her strength, her hope, her joy, we pray.

Thank You for the gift of mothers—gift divine—

A living, breathing example of Your love’s design.

Happy Mother’s Day—may you feel

The love of Heaven, steady and real.

You are cherished, honored, and held above,

Wrapped in the warm embrace of a Father’s love.

Amen.
