The other mother

Dear Lord,

Help me to let this pain go and accept the situation for what it is.  Help me to sympathize for whatever pain she is dealing with that may be causing her to be so antagonistic.  Bless her with your love and light and help her to heal her wounds.  Help me to love her as your daughter, Ashlynn's mom and a sister in your love.  Let me not add another pain on top of the many she has endured, including those I may have already caused.  Forgive me for sinning against you as I thought, spoke and acted wrongfully against her.  Grant me your wisdom that I may grow in your grace and in my relationship with her.

Thank you for giving me an open heart and an opportunity to grow.

Love, Ericka
