Gracious and Loving Father,
On this Mother’s Day, we thank You for the gift of mothers—those who have nurtured us, cared for us, and reflected Your love in countless ways. As 1 John reminds us, “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God.” Today, we honor those who have lived out that love with patience, sacrifice, and grace.
Lord, we praise You because You are love. In You, we have seen perfect love made manifest through Jesus Christ. Thank You for the ways mothers mirror this selfless, abiding love—through sleepless nights, tender words, strong prayers, and faithful presence.
We pray for every mother today—those filled with joy and those carrying pain, those who have lost children and those longing to be mothers, those raising children now, and those who have raised generations. May Your perfect love cast out all fear, bring comfort, and fill them with peace.
Help us all to walk in love, not just in word but in deed. May we learn from the love we’ve received and share it freely, just as You have loved us. Let this day be a celebration of Your love working through the hearts of mothers and all who mother others.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
