The Example
Each morning in prayer,
My mother spoke with God
Asking I would escape the devil's lair
And travel the path He, Himself had trod.
Each morning in prayer,
She knelt beside her bed
Not asking for material things
Seeking the wisdom of God instead.
Each morning in prayer,
I now kneel beside my bed
Following her faithful example,
Seeking the strength to be led.
Teaching me how to smile,
Showing me how to walk the extra mile,
Giving me love all the while,
My mother prayed for me.
