Recite it with faith in the name of Jesus

When I think of mothers, my thoughts turn automatically to the story of a woman of the Old Testament named Jochebed. She was the mother of Moses, whom God raised up to deliver Israel from slavery under the Egyptians

Just before her son was born, Pharaoh had ordered the massacre of all male children, as Herod did in the time of Jesus. Jochebed was able to keep her son with her for three months, but then she had to rely on her faith and let him go.

And so she took a basket, daubed it with bitumen and pitch, and put Moses inside. She then entrusted the basket to the river, as if to say: “God, I have no other choice. I have done all I can to hide my son. Now I place this child in the river, and I entrust him to you.”

The child was found by the daughter of Pharaoh, who raised him as her own.

Based on the Old Testament account from the Book of Exodus 2:1-10, were Jochebed transported to the present day, I might imagine her praying for her son in this way:

Lord, what else can I do!
I have guarded my son; I have cared for him with all of my devotion.
I have done everything in my power to protect him.
Now I place him in your hands, and I believe in your protection.
In this river of life protect him, and free him from all evil.
Deliver him from the bloodthirsty man, from the stray bullet, and from the attacker.
Do not allow anything bad to happen to him.

Divine Guardian, protector of all that is pure and innocent, I come before you with a fervent plea, Wrap your loving arms around my precious children, Shield them from harm, keep them safe and free.

May your light illuminate their path, Guiding them through darkness and strife, Grant them courage in times of fear, And strength to embrace this journey called life.

Guardian angels, stand by their side, Watch over them day and night, Keep them safe from dangers unseen, And lead them toward what is good and right.

Grant them wisdom to discern, Between falsehoods and truths they learn, Instill in them compassion and grace, And let love be their guiding embrace.

Protect their hearts from pain and sorrow, Let joy and peace fill their tomorrows, Grant them health in body, mind, and soul, And may your divine presence make them whole.

In your hands, O Lord, I place my trust, For you are the source of all protection and love, Bless my children with your divine care, And keep them safe now and forevermore.

Amen.
