As we all continue to navigate this pandemic together, many are finding themselves in new and unexpected roles. For many, that includes taking on a greater role in the care of a loved one.
In this blog post, we will explore how to pray for your mom with COVID.
Though it may be difficult to know what to say or do, prayer is a powerful tool that can help comfort and support your mom during this time.
So, let’s get started!
How To Supporting Your Mom During This Time
If your mom is currently fighting COVID, there are some things you can do to help support her during this time. Below are a few suggestions:
1. Pray for her regularly. As we saw above, prayer is a powerful tool that can help support and comfort your mom during this time. So, make it a priority to pray for her regularly.
2. Check in on her often. Whether you live close by or far away, make sure to check in on your mom frequently. This can be done via phone, text, email, or video chat. Checking in will help you stay up-to-date on how she is doing and will also let her know that you are thinking of her.
3. Send her encouraging notes or cards. A little bit of encouragement can go a long way, especially during tough times. So, consider sending your mom a card or note letting her know that you are thinking of her and that you are praying for her.
4. Help with practical needs. If your mom is battling COVID, there is a good chance that she is not able to do all the things she normally does. So, see if there are any practical ways you can help out. This could include things like grocery shopping, cooking meals, or cleaning the house.
5. Give her a break from the news. One of the best things you can do for your mom right now is to give her a break from all the negative news surrounding COVID. This doesn’t mean you should avoid talking about it altogether but try to limit the amount of time you spend discussing it. Instead, focus on more positive topics, like what you are grateful for or fun things you have been doing.
No matter what your mom is facing right now, know that you are not alone. There are others who are walking through this journey with you. So, lean on them for support, and remember to keep praying!
