Prayer of a Wife

Dear Lord,
Grant me the grace to be more patient.
When children are misbehaving and food is not eaten.
When the budget is short and all bills are always rising.
When my husband is busy and he tends to forget our anniversary.
When laundries are filled piled up and I have no time for myself.
When household chores tend to be routinary and I feel I am a robot.

I don't ask you Lord, that I may be appreciated
I don't work that I may be praised
Nor do I complain or seek comfort.
What I ask of you is to grant me the grace to be more persevering. Because I will do these things again just to give the best to my children.
Let all these household duties be the expressions of my all-encompassing concern for them.
