Remembering Mama
Litany of do this and don’t do that…
My dearest mother is a champion of verbalizing such
Not as a loquacious orator, but as a virtuous lady*
Exemplifying in her own right Proverbs 31:10-31** of the Bible.
Now as a “guardian mother” myself
I learned that Mama’s good success-list
Actually is triumphant formula against futility
Worth putting into practice.
With God’s direction and guidance,
Earnestly I present with gratefulness
Wisdom gems my Mama Artencia imparted to my heart
Anchored by Scriptures driving my faith-performance.
Always put God first
Rely on His power
Trust His grace
Excel thru His might
Neglect never His Word
Cling to His presence
Invest in His ministry
Abide in His will.
Abound in the Lord’s goodness
Give to His mission works
Uphold His standards
Serve by His strength
Teach with His prudence
Instruct thru His precepts
Nestle in His love.
*Proverbs 31:10 “Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.”
**Proverbs 31:30 “Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.”
