A Daughter’s Prayer

VarvaraGulinaPrayer

Our next prayer by an Orthodox (young) woman comes from Varvara Gulina:


 

”My daughter has a beautiful gift of writing that she uses to write prayers and worship. We also have a uniquely close and beautiful mother-daughter relationship-- I thought this prayer could serve as a witness about how powerful a mother-daughter relationship can be. I also thought it would give my daughter, as a future woman in the Church, an opportunity to share her voice and prayers through Axia.”


 

Thank you, Varvara!

 


 

Prayer for my Mom
 

Dear God, 

Make my mom know that she is loved. 

Make my mom know that there is nothing that can stop her.

Make my mom know that I really appreciate her.

Make my mom know that even though stuff can be hard, it does not mean she will give up.

Make my mom know that she is the best mom you could possibly have.

Make my mom know that she is a strong warrior and she will not be pushed around.

Make my mom know that no matter what, I will always be by her side.

Make my mom know that I love her with all my heart, and I will never, ever stop loving her.

Make my mom know that she is my leader and I will never give up on her.
