Mother's Day Meditation

Listen now as we honor and celebrate mothers.

Good morning and Happy Mother’s Day. This is Chaplain Kevin. Would you pause with me and reflect as we begin this morning…

Throughout scripture there are many special mothers. One of the most remarkable is Mary, the mother of Jesus. Whenever Mary noticed something special about her son, scripture says that she: 

“Treasured … all these things and pondered them in her heart.”

Like Mary, all good moms treasure their children and ponder them in their hearts. So on Mother’s Day, we choose to give back to our moms what they have always given us. We recognize and celebrate all moms today, expressing our gratitude for their gifts of love and life.

Let us offer a prayer in their honor:

God, we thank you for the mothers you have placed in our lives. The mom that birthed us and the spiritual moms that have helped raise us. Grow in us the attributes of Godly motherhood, so that all our relationships may benefit. And help us to express our love and gratitude to mom today; and every day. We pray these things in your Name. Amen.
