In the U.S. today, it’s Mother’s Day, a day to recognize the important role that mothers play in our lives. For many of us, a mother’s love is a glimpse into God’s unconditional love. Let’s thank God for mothers and mother figures, for their love, encouragement, faithfulness, nurturing and protection. Pray, too, for those who are actively raising children during the pandemic. Pray for patience, wisdom and hope.
