Prayer that I may never stray from Our Lady’s care

Aleteia - published on 11/03/17

Ask with the confidence of a child with his mother.

A prayer for those times when we yearn for a Mother’s care:

O most wonderful Mother,
don’t forget me
when I forget you;
don’t abandon me
when I abandon you;

Follow me with your heavenly gaze
and call me when I go away from you;
search for me when I hide;
pursue me when I flee;
compel me when I defy you;
convert me when I stand against you;
lift me up when I fall,
and lead me back along your path
when I go astray.

Amen!
