Dear Mom,
I am eternally blessed that God chose me to be your child. The mere fact that He placed me in your loving arms is nothing short of miraculous. Every day, I witness your unique, unconditional love wash over me, cleansing my doubts and renewing my spirit. I have looked up to you in countless ways, but it is your Christ-like kind and selfless giving that fills me with humble gratitude. To call you “mom” is to know that in this vast, often cold world, there exists a sanctuary I can call home, a flame that inspires my darkest moments, and a shield of protection so powerful that even in my weakest hours, I feel God’s touch through yours.
You are infinitely more special than you will ever recognize. Your soul radiates as a direct reflection of God’s boundless grace—a living testament to His nurturing spirit that loves without condition, guides without judgment and protects without hesitation. You have been my shelter when I couldn’t stand, my voice when I couldn’t speak and my heart when I couldn’t love myself. I see how you navigate your own journey, discovering your path as you walk it and facing struggles throughout, yet standing with such confidence as though you’ve done this human life many times before. The sacrifices you’ve made throughout motherhood—some I’ve witnessed with tear-filled eyes, others born in silence that only God has seen—reveal the depth of your desire to place my joy above your own. I am very grateful for your commitment.
The wisdom, joy, and unshakable faith that now flows through me came first from you, your actions and your prayers whispered over me throughout my life. You have been more than a role model; you’ve been my North Star, illuminating what becomes possible when we surrender completely to God’s divine plan and anchor our belief in both His promises and the gifts He has given us. Your grace and that remarkable ability to forgive has carved itself into my soul. In your tranquil presence, you make everyone, especially me, feel truly seen, deeply loved, and divinely heard. Yet paradoxically, it is in this gentle state that your strength shines most brilliantly—for in honoring your human journey with all its beautiful imperfections, you’ve granted me permission to embrace my own.
As you walk through this season of your life, I pray that God’s healing touch radiates through every cell of your being—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I pray that He rekindles those dreams you tucked away, that you rediscover the breathtaking wonder of your own power. May you find soul-deep fulfillment in both the celebrations and moments of peace, in the magnificent life you’ve created, in your relationship with yourself, and your ever-deepening relationship with God. I pray the burdens weighing upon your shoulders be lifted, that wounds in your heart be sealed, and that every challenge before you transforms into a remarkable testimony.
As we both continue to evolve, my greatest hope lies in the promise that our bond will not just maintain as it is but expand into dimensions we cannot yet imagine—reaching depths of understanding that only shared joy and weathered storms can create. May our love grow more with each passing day, blossoming into an even deeper understanding of one another.
This is my deepest prayer: that you live not just the life you’ve always wanted, but the abundant life that God designed specifically for you since before time began.
Thank you for being my mother, my best friend, my mentor. I love you more than words can ever articulate.
With love,
Your child
