A Mama's Prayer
by Barbara Philbrook

Dear Heavenly Father please watch over my Son for me,
please take care of him no matter where he happens to be.

Please see that he returns safely to his family each and every night,
please intervene in his life so that it is perfect in your sight.

Please send your angels to protect him when he's away at work,
please protect his family from any dangers that may lurk.

Please open his ears that he may hear the words you desire,
please sent the Holy Spirit to set his heart on fire.

Lord I have not been the perfect mother I know,
but please open his mind and your truths on him bestow.

There is much I could have done but failed to do,
Lord for these I ask for forgiveness from you.

Please make up for any inadequacies in me,
and help Him to be all that He can be.

Please show him the way that You want Him to go,
please help Him to learn what You want Him to know.

Please be a Blessing to Him and His precious Family,
please give them the same love and consideration that You've shown to me.

Thank You Father for all of your great expressions of Love,
Thank You so much for sending me a Son who is such a perfect gift from above.
