Lord, we thank you for the presence of Christine in our lives and we lift her up with these intentions to you. May you fill her with an abundance of your grace as she does her best to raise her children in a loving household. We thank you for our own mothers that you have given us, whose love is so precious that it can never be measured, whose patience seems to have no end. May we see your loving hand behind them and guiding them. We pray for those mothers who fear they will run out of love or time, or patience. We ask you to bless them with your own special love. We ask this in Christ's name. Amen.
As the Holy Spirit is the love exchange between the Father and the Son so may this same Spirit of Love increase the charity within my family.
Right around mid-October of 2009 it hit me that I wanted to be more intentional with praying for my family on an individual basis. As the thought matured I thought it would be nice to make this action a little more communal by inviting my family to be joining with me in the weekly intention. Hopefully through this we would all in a way be coming together in prayer no matter where we are on the globe. After all a family that prays together, stays together.
I thought this would be a nice Christmas present to my whole family, so below you'll find the weekly schedule and in the body of this site I'll post a different prayer each weekend for the family member that we'll be praying for during the week.
