Mothers Prayer

Posted in Child Rearing


I don't have much time on here today as we are running errands and trying to finish up the weeks "Must do / To do's"  


If I don't pop in tonight, I hope you all have a very blessed weekend!


Before I go...

 
I have many poems, prayers and quotes in my "Orderly Mom Notebook" here is another one I thought many of you would enjoy!



~Mothers Prayer~


"I washed the dirt from little feet, and as I wash I pray, "Lord, keep them pure and true, to walk in Your way!"

I wash the dirt from little hands, and earnestly I ask, "Lord, may they ever willing be, to do the humblest task."

I wash the dirt from little knees, and pray, "Lord, may these be the places where victories are won, and guidance sought from Thee."

I scrub the clothes that soil so soon, and pray, "May they be dressed throughout eternal ages in Your robe of Righteousness."

Before many hours shall pass, I know I'll wash these hands again; And there'll be dirt upon their clothes before the day shall end.

But as they journey on through life and learn of want and pain, Lord, keep their precious little hearts cleansed from sin and stain!

For soap and water cannot reach where You alone can see.
Their hands and feet, these I can wash --- I trust their hearts to Thee."

---adapted from Barbara Cornet Ryberg
