Prayer
Lord we pray for our mothers who have given us life and love that we would show them reverence and love. We pray for mothers who have lost a child through death that their faith may give them hope and comfort. We pray for women, though without children of their own, have nurtured and cared for us. Loving God, as a mother gives life and nourishment to her children so watch over your church. Bless these women, that they may be strengthened in their faith and that your love would shine forth in them. Grant, that we, their sons and daughters may honor them always with profound respect . This we pray through Christ our Lord. Amen

Scripture
Matthew 20: 20-28 NIV
A Mother’s Request
20 Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons and, kneeling down, asked a favor of him.
21 “What is it you want?” he asked.
She said, “Grant that one of these two sons of mine may sit at your right and the other at your left in your kingdom.”
22 “You don’t know what you are asking,” Jesus said to them. “Can you drink the cup I am going to drink?”
“We can,” they answered.
23 Jesus said to them, “You will indeed drink from my cup, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared by my Father.”
24 When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers. 25 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 26 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first must be your slave-- 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
