My mom and dad had 8 children. They have been committed to faith and family all my life until dad recently transitioned to be with the Lord (November 30, 2024). May he rest in peace.
My mother, Dr. Carolyn J. Harris, is a dedicated prayer warrior. A mother’s example is as powerful as her prayers. I’ve learned from her the power of putting everything in the Lord’s hands.
Let us pray this prayer for mothers inspired by Bishop Augustine of Hippo and his profound love for his mother, Monica:
O Lord, You blessed me with a mother whose tears were prayers of love and devotion beyond my comprehension. You heard her cries, and in Your mercy, You responded with my salvation and the anointing on my life. Bless all mothers who seek You for their children. Strengthen them with patience, fill them with peace, and sustain their faith in times when hope feels distant. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
