For All the Mothers

Thanks be to the God that gave me the title of being a mother, I don't take it lightly -

it is a fragile gift I am eternally thankful for.

Thanks be to the gracious Lord who allowed me the mother that I have,

she is not taken for granted but deeply treasured.

Thanks be to my Father who gave my husband a kind mother to teach him with all patience,

so that in this journey of motherhood I would not be alone.

Praise be to the One who works all things together for good,

Who gave me women to inspire me through their triumphs and losses,

and others to rejoice with, learn from and lean on.

Glory to the Lord that gave me my little boy, each dawn is full of blessings new.
