Why you should pray to Mother Matrona

Therefore, Matrona helps all women who ask for a successful marriage for their daughters. Physical disabilities did not give her a happy family life, but she helped other people find their soul mate and heal spiritually and physically. God heard Matrona’s prayers of gratitude. She was never angry with the Lord and was grateful for giving her the opportunity to serve people.

The power of a mother's prayer
It's good to have a Christian upbringing. It is good if the daughter is obedient to her parents. But this does not always happen. If there is a lack of mutual understanding, the mother is able to ensure the well-being of the child through her prayer. Improve relationships. To enlighten an obstinate heart by your own example with the help of Christ. She prays that:
- The wisdom of God enlightened the young soul.
- She led her to a quiet, fertile source.
- Provided a peaceful and tranquil residence.
- Heaven sent a husband who meets all the necessary qualities to create a happy union.
Example: One woman came to the bishop, complaining about her son, whom she even kicked out of the house.
She asked for the Church’s prayers for the “lost” but beloved child, who, having matured, entered the slippery path of debauchery (fell away from Christ, indulged in heretical teaching). - Mother, do you pray for him? – asked the clergyman.
– Yes, every day I cry to God with tears.
“Then go and continue your work.” The son of such tears cannot die!
Monica, that was the woman’s name, prayed for more than one year, but what a son she acquired! Saint Blessed Augustine.
This example shows that the prayer of a Christian mother works miracles. The Lord, sooner or later, will hear it and fulfill it. The main thing is the belief that not a single tear will be wasted. Therefore, never lose heart, do not fall into despair, but pray. The Lord has already helped so many, are you really the only one He will refuse?
Note: Faith is, quite simply, the belief in the existence of God. And the determination to follow the path of Christ. Love for the Lord and acceptance of His teachings with all your heart saves. He identified such people, saying: He who loves Me will keep My commandments.
How to pray
First, we must forgive everyone’s offenses, so that the Lord will forgive us our sins. You need to pray with the assurance that the Lord and the saints hear and will fulfill your requests. At the end we must add: “not my will, but Yours be done, Lord, I commend my daughter into Your hands.”
You can pray at home and in church, it’s good to submit a note about your daughter’s health at the liturgy, or order a prayer service. You can place a candle in front of the icon before praying. The main thing is to remember children in prayer every day. If the request is for the good, it will certainly be fulfilled, sooner or later, through the appeal of the saints to the Lord God. And the Creator knows better what exactly we need at the moment.
How to address the great Saint
A mother's heart and soul always ache for her children. Worries and anxieties do not allow you to sleep peacefully at night. Only a mother’s prayer has miraculous power and the ability to help children.
In the old days, when a girl was born into a family, it was customary for the family to pray for her successful marriage, and also to send her a good man, and not a man who walks or drinks.
Before reading Matrona’s prayer for her daughter’s marriage, you should rid your mind of worldly vanity and set your spirit positively, imagining marriage as a happy union of two loving hearts. A prayer service is said daily in the evening. A mother should not tell anyone about her prayers, not even her daughter.
