Philippians 4:6-7 : Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.

I know that is MUCH easier said than done… but I also know the peace that Paul is talking about in this passage. I’ve felt it and I KNOW that when I lay my problems at the feet of Jesus, they are no longer my problems, they are His. It doesn’t mean I never worry (because I’m human, so of course I do!), but it is much easier to turn it back to prayer or praise when I do start to worry again. Knowing that the King of Kings wants me to come to HIM with everything, with every detail of my life because He loves me so much that He wants to spend time with me. WOW. That right there gives me so much peace knowing the love my Father has for me.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Dear God,

Thank you for your endless provisions of grace and mercy. We come to you today to lift up every woman who answers to the name of “mom.” We ask that you supply each one with the strength they need for those difficult days. Give them wisdom to know when to encourage and when to correct their children. Supply them with an extra dose of patience. Remind them that children are a heritage and a reward from You (Psalm 127:3 ), and shower them with special moments they can cherish. Lord, we also ask that you draw them close to you daily. Remind them of their worth in Your eyes - that they, too, are cherished children of a loving Father. We pray for contentment in this very special calling. May every mom realize that this is a mission from You, one that brings truly great rewards in the end.

Amen
