Prayer

God made known in the strength and vulnerability of birth,

the joy and pain of motherhood,

in nights of sleepless love,

and inner oceans’ flow,

in demands without number

and questions without answer:

give us gratitude for the women who carried us,

for the carers who nurture us

and for the chance to pass on life to others;

through Jesus Christ, Mary’s Child. Amen.

(Steven Shakespeare ‘Prayers for an Inclusive Church’)

With my love and prayers,

Sally.
