The mother’s voice is the first voice that a child ever
knows.
- It is the first voice that comes to comfort when pavement
proves to be harder than your knee.
- It is the voice that reminds you that you are worth
something whether or not that girl you like realizes it or not.
- It is the voice of wisdom that guides when your life is at
a crossroads.
- It is often the voice of your conscience reminding you what
is right and wrong, and always calling you back to the right.
- It is the voice of instruction reminding you of the tenets of
faith and life.
- It is the voice of soothing words of peace that calm the
raging storm that brews inside our hearts.
- It is the voice that bids you to get up and keep going,
even though life has beaten you down and crushed you into the ground.
- It is the voice that rejoices with you when you find that
special one to live your life with.
- It is the voice that your whispers comfort to her
grandchildren in the earliest stages of life.
- It is the voice that tells you that you can do it, even
when the rest of the world doubts.
- It is the voice that is full of pride when you become what
God always intended you to be.
Most importantly it is the voice of prayer that pleads with
God Almighty, the Creator of Heaven and Earth for your very life.
Voices fade, diminish, and even disappear, but no matter how
far or how distant that voice becomes – It is always the voice telling you that
she is proud of you, that you are worthy, that no matter what comes she knows
you can do it!
Mom, thank you for your voice!
thoughtful, grateful, insightful!
