Thought for the Week!

“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.”

Washington Irving

Scripture for the Week!

I would lead you and bring you to my mother’s house she who has taught me.

Song of Solomon 8:2

Prayer for the Week!

Loving Lord and Father of all comfort, I come to You in the name of Jesus, to lay my mother at your feet, knowing that she has been so unwell for such a long time. I ask Lord, that You heal her of whatever it is that is troubling her. Free her I pray, from the pain and confusion she is going through, and restore her to full health and strength, for You are the God Who heals and cares. Thank You that You love and care and comfort all Your children, and I ask that You will give my dear mother the peace in heart that only You can give. May she know that underneath are Your everlasting arms of comfort and that You have promised never to leave her or forsake her. Help my dear mother speedily I pray, and I will give you all the praise and glory due to Your name. Amen.
