Graduation and Commissioning

Prayer of a Military Mom
Dear Lord I pray,
Keep my child safe by night and day.
They’ve vowed an honored oath,
To protect this great land -
to sacrifice themself, for every free man.
Whether in times of war,
Or in times of peace,
Let us both know that your love will never cease.
Just like a Mom, my heart is with them each day -
Whether they’re here at home,
Or someplace far away.
Bless us both Lord, and grant us calm.
In their job as a soldier,
And mine as their Mom.
…Amen
