The power of Orthodox maternal and parental prayers
A well-known proverb says: “A mother’s prayer rises from the bottom of the sea.” Indeed, asking God to protect a child can greatly help the child. And there is plenty of evidence of this, which has been repeatedly observed. Therefore, in Orthodoxy it is believed that prayer is a holy duty of a mother.
When a son goes into the army, parents are worried about many worries. Fears about the child’s health, adaptation to a harsh male group and other possible dangers accompany separation from the current soldier. Such a number of experiences attracts the possibility of their fulfillment. Therefore, the best way to calm fears and strengthen a child’s spirit, to give him protection from a distance, is a prayer for a soldier.
A father, like a mother, can have recourse to Divine help. This will strengthen the prayer message. A joint family trip to church or prayer at home for a son will strengthen spiritual ties and save the soldier.
