My Empty Nest Mother's Heart

Dear Gentle Jesus:
Teach me as a parent of grown children how to do this. It's so hard to know when to speak and when to be silent. I do know praying is always a good option. 'Create in me a clean heart O God, and renew a right spirit within me.' My Mother's Heart is confused sometimes.
Swaddle my grown children and hold them in your loving peaceful arms. May they recognize that it's You holding them. May they always know your touch and your voice. Fill them with peace, Godly wisdom and purpose.
I feel like I did when they were little some days...always trying to catch them before they fall or protect them from the mean people. My Mother's Heart will always want the best for them. You've shown me often that it never was me who protected them...it was always you! I'm thankful all my worry and pleading has not fallen on deaf ears.. You promise to hear me when I call. You also lovingly have reminded me I never did control a single thing. You are the one in the Sovereignty business and don't need my help.
Thank you for allowing me the immeasurable joy of being their Mom. Continue to teach me to trust You with their lives and futures. Gone are the days where a video and cookie made everything better. I need you still...this Mom of grown children. ❤️
Because you first loved me,
Thank you,
Angie
