The Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the precious gift of my daughter. You know her heart, her dreams, her struggles, and the path You have prepared for her.
Just as Your Son, Jesus, lovingly took Jairus’ daughter by the hand and restored her to life, I ask You to reach out Your hand to my daughter today. Bring healing where she is hurting, peace where she is anxious, hope where she is discouraged, and strength whenever she feels weak.
Lead her closer to You each day. Fill her with wisdom to choose what is right, courage to stand firm in her faith, and kindness that reflects the love of Christ. Protect her from all evil, surround her with faithful friends, and help her always remember that she is deeply loved by You.
May the Blessed Virgin Mary wrap her in her motherly care, and may her guardian angel watch over her wherever she goes.
Lord, I entrust my daughter to You today and always, trusting that Your plans for her are filled with hope and goodness.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
