A Prayer for Single Moms on Mother's Day

Originally published Wednesday, 27 April 2016.

Father God, we thank you for each and every woman you have blessed with the privilege of motherhood.  We thank you that every single mother is a Godly steward of each of their children and that they raise them in the ways of the Lord.  Father, we pray and ask that You continue to give them the grace to walk out being a single parent with kindness and generosity. We pray that each single mother has a relationship with You, and worships You in spirit and truth.

Help each of your precious daughters to remember that although they are parenting alone, You have not left them nor forsaken them.  We thank You that You see each of them and love them.  Lord, if they are weary, we pray and ask that You send them a Godly sister in Christ to hold up their arms in the battle, just as Aaron did for Moses.  Lord, thank you that You care about every big or small thing that concerns them.  Place a hedge of protection around each single mother and her children, Father.  We thank you that You alone are their Provider.  Where there is lack, Father, we pray that it be Your will, and You will bring abundance.  We pray and ask these things in your name, Amen.
