My Mama

My Gorgeous Mama

New Years Eve 2014

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Mama. How blessed I am that she is

still here and in relatively good

health at 88 years old.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Lord, today I turn to you to give you thanks for my mother. With your own gift of life, she bore me in her womb and gave me life. She tenderly, patiently cared for me and taught me to walk and talk. She read to me and made me laugh. No one delighted in my successes more; no one could comfort me better in my failures. I am so grateful for how she mothered me and mentored me, and even disciplined me. 

Please bless her, Lord, and comfort her. Help her loving heart to continue to love and give of herself to others. Strengthen her when she is down and give her hope when she is discouraged. 

In Jesus name, Amen.
