Mother’s Day Prayer – Jack H. Emmott 5/8/16
Love is born
From the womb
God gave her.

Granddaughter Elissa with her special friend
Lying beside her
She sees her blessing
Clothed in innocence
And angelic beauty.
The woman who received God’s gift
Is like no other.
God gave her a special name.
He called her “mother”.
God,
On this Mother’s Day
May every mother
In the Kingdom of Christ
Hold in the manger
Of her heart
Memories of joy
And happy tears,
Of her sleeping child curled up
In the quiet, security and peace
Of a mother’s love.
Amen
