Mothering Sunday Blessing of Flowers

Yesterday I was looking around for a suitable blessing for our flowers, and I couldn't find one I like. So I wrote one of my own. Feel free to use, adapt, rewrite, etc. 


May God, who has written our names on the palm of each hand, 

and longs to gather us to safety as a mother hen shelters her chicks; 

bless these flowers, that they might be signs of our love and appreciation

of all those who love with a mother’s strong and caring love. 

Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
