Prayer for Working Moms

Our parish bulletin yesterday offered a lovely prayer, On Being a Working Mom. Now, all moms are working moms in our opinion, but this addresses those who also work outside the home:

"Dear God, I never realized what ‘having it all’ meant. Thank you for my job that helps provide for my family. I know that I am blessed and others have so much less. I pray for the energy to be a good mother and to hold down a job as well. I pray for my family to stay healthy and safe. I pray for the patience and understanding to juggle the needs of family and work and to know where my true priorities lie."
