A Mother’s Prayer

A Mother’s Prayer

Lord, I am satisfied tonight to be, A Mother in a world gone mad with hate. Here in this hour of earth’s agony, I do not ask that I may do some great Magnificent achievement, bringing fame. I do not covet larger fields to roam. I only want to keep alight the flame Of God’s love shining from a Christian Home.
I thank thee for my Children. If the way Should lead to heartbreak, grant me courage, Lord. I will remember that there was a day Thy Mother’s heart was pierced by sorrow’s sword. Thy grace will be sufficient now – as then. I’m glad to be a mother, Lord – Amen.Author Unknown
