About This Prayer

This short prayer to Mother Mary asks the Blessed Virgin for her maternal intercession and guidance. Catholics honor Mary not as the source of grace, but as the Mother of Jesus who continually points us toward her Son. Her faithful response to God provides a beautiful example of trust, humility, and obedience.

The Prayer

Blessed Mother Mary, draw me closer to your Son, Jesus. Help me to trust in God’s will with the same faith and humility you showed throughout your life. When I am troubled, comfort me; when I am uncertain, guide me; and when I grow weary, strengthen my hope. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for me and lead me always to Jesus. Amen.
