UNHAPPY MOTHERS – Even now, as many a mother is happily celebrating her attentive, loving and caring children, we will not be so naïve as to think that this is the state of all mothers. These times of celebration can be very painful for mothers, whose hearts are broken and who grieve daily, because of sons and daughters who have gone far astray. These mothers feel and carry great shame and deep guilt and cannot be consoled. Yet, we believe in the sinner’s Friend and pray for all mothers who are living burdened lives.
Father God, You who had and still have many truant, stubborn and wicked children, we pray for all mothers who grieve. Draw them to You, and in Your mercy bring them Your relief. Amen!
Read Psalm 34: 17 - 18
