Let us lift up this beloved mother in prayer, seeking God's grace and mercy for her life. We pray for her to have an outpouring of kindness to herself in the coming year.
Before we pray, we want to remind her of the words of God in Ephesians 2:8-9 WEB:
"By grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast."
It is important she understand that it is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can approach God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. Jesus told us I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Let us pray.
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up this dear mother. We pray that she will treat herself with the kindness and love, just as You love us. Help to her to see herself through Your eyes, as a precious child of God. Help her to know that she is special and loved.
Lord, we ask You to fill her heart with Your peace and joy. Help her to take time for herself, to rest, and to engage in activities that bring her happiness and fulfillment. We pray that she will be gentle with herself, forgiving herself for any perceived shortcomings, and remembering that Your grace is sufficient for her, she is enough. Remind her You are always with her, strengthening her, and guiding her through life's journey.
We pray for her to have a deep relationship with You. Help her to draw closer to You, growing in your grace and the knowledge of Christ.
Father, we ask that You surround her with supportive friends and family who will encourage and uplift her. We pray for her relationships to be godly and beneficial to her. Help her to be a shining light for You, reflecting Your love and kindness to others.
To anyone else who may read this prayer, let us remember the words in John 14:6 WEB.
"Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can approach God. There is no other name by which we can be saved.
