Catholic Mother's Prayer after Holy Communion Thank You Card

This is a beautiful vintage image of the Blessed Virgin Mary holding a pink rose, also known as Rosa Mystica painted by Alberto Fuster in 1899. On the back is a Mother's Prayer after Holy Communion written for the Archconfraternity of Christian Mothers. Dear Jesus, I want You to know that I believe with all my heart that You have come to me in Holy Communion. What a privilege for me! You are my God and knowing my unworthiness You still enter my heart, because You realise how much I, a mother, need You. Dearest Jesus, I thank You for dying to save me and for staying with us in the Holy Eucharist. My life, my faith, my husband, together with my motherhood and family are all gifts from You. All that I am and all that I have I owe to You. I thank You for everything, most generous Jesus. Seeing again how good You are to me makes me sorry for being so unfair to You. I could have been a better mother, more patient, more self-sacrificing. My lips and heart could have prayed more often. There was no need for my critical remarks. I should have accepted my little pains and crosses without complaining. You know all my other faults. Please help me, Jesus, to get rid of all of them to prove my love for You. You blessed me with my motherhood, and I know that You are relying on me to help my husband and children to be good Catholics. Help me to keep You the centre of my heart and my home. Teach us to pray together so that we may stay together. Never give us so much of this world that we may forget You and the next world. Make me conscious of my dignity as a mother. Never let me forget that my marriage lasts until death. Teach me to pray over and over again to Your Mother, “Mary, please help me to be a better mother.” Kneeling here with the other members of our Confraternity, I realise what a great privilege it is to be a Christian Mother. Strengthen our union through this Holy Communion. Keep us grateful for the grace to love children. Give us strength to resist the disease of empty homes and childless cradles. Teach us to love one another and to allow for the faults of others. May we be model mothers of whom You and Your Mother can always be proud. amen.
