Poetry: A mother's prayer

During times in my life
when I'm tired and weak
my dear Lord provides
the comfort I seek

Being a mother
isn't easy to do
with God by my side
I can make it through

The gifts I was given
mean everything to me
I thank the dear Lord
for all he chose me to be

My life is so full
of happiness and love
But there are times
I need help from above

I get down on my knees
and whisper a prayer
the Lord always listens
He is always there

I ask for the strength
I need everyday
for patience and hope
in his sweet name I pray

In times of discouragement
I ask for solace and peace
I seek the wisdom I need
to quell thoughts of defeat

I ask Him to lead me
and guide me through
everything in life
that I must do

I thank Him for all
He bestowed upon me
He always gives me strength
to be all I must be
