The hand that rocks the cradle also makes the house a home. It is the prayers of the mother that keeps the family strong. Mother rises early in the morning and bathes her day in prayer. She talks to God about her family and places them in His care. Mother communicates her love in a thousand different ways. When there’s a need, she is there, whether it is night or day. When challenges come our way and when trials block our view, Mother kneels down beside her bed and prays the family through. Mother is God’s special creation. She is a light shining in the dark, illuminating the path for her family and pointing them toward God.
