Happy Mother's Day
As we approach Mother's Day we want to give a Happy Mother's Day shout out to all the mothers, spiritual mothers, and those who nurture and love unconditionally. You are making a difference, and your love is a powerful force in this world. We pray God continues to strengthen and empower you to continue in your calling to love and give as a mother.
For Those Who Long For a Mother's Love
We also want to take a moment to acknowledge the pain and emptiness that some may feel around this time. For those who haven't received the physical, emotional, or spiritual nurturing that a mother's love should bring and are still longing for a mother's love, we want you to know that you are seen, your heart desire is valid, and we want to bless you with this Mother's Blessing prayer.
A Mother's Blessing Prayer
Take a few slow deep breaths and move into a heart posture to receive. God wants to bless you with a mother's blessing. It's never too late. Now is a good time.
Dear One,
As a mama in the Kingdom of God, I want to bless you.
I bless your spirit with eyes to see and ears to hear the truth of the King of kings. I bless you to lock eyes with the One who loves you no matter what. I bless you to gaze deep into His eyes, to search the depths of His love for you that freely flows there. I bless you to hear Him as He sings over you in the night.
I bless you with the joy of the Lord. It’s your birthright. It’s yours to simply receive from the true joy giver. It’s part of who HE is within you. I bless you to simply let the One who knows all things bring His joy as an undercurrent to carry you in His strength through every day of your life. Because His joy really is your strength. It’s right there.
I bless you with the shalom of God that says everything will be alright. In the big picture, His promise is that He will work ALL things together for our good. So He will do it. We don’t have to understand how He’ll do that in order to be able to trust that HE who created such beauty in the creation we see around us – HE who knit you together in your mother’s womb – HE who brings out the stars in such magnificent array – HE who keeps the earth turning on its axis… yes, THAT God is able to knit your life together into a beautiful tapestry.
I bless you to let go of striving. To rest in the love and power of the One who created you and who loves you through every circumstance. Nothing to earn. Just enjoy Him as He enjoys you as you enjoy Him enjoying you…..
I bless you with the truth that sets you free. I bless you to ask that you may receive. I bless you to simply ask the Lord for His truth in every situation. He delights to give it.
I bless you to know who you are. To know that you really are redeemed and washed completely clean by the Blood of the Lamb. To know that you really are the righteousness of God. To know that there really is NO condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Yes, even you.
I bless you to present yourself every morning to the Lord as the new creature that He says you are. (2 Corinthians 5:17) So I bless you to abandon the old man. To see the new you when you look in the mirror. That old you is GONE! The new has come!
I bless you to think thoughts of truth. The same thoughts as your Creator. The thoughts of the good, good Father who loves you and delights in you. I bless you to ask Him for His thoughts.
I bless you to sing. To sing and to dance along with Him. He wants to pull you close. I bless you to trust Him. To see that He is good. He is safe. He is the Daddy you always wanted.
I bless you in Jesus’ Name.
