Oh children, oh children,
hear a mama’s cry.
This world with all its pressures, this world with all its lies –
pressing and crossing your path each day,
please children, I plea,
spend time with God each day.
You see labor is painful and labor can be long,
a mama will tell you, but child – you become a song!
A song as you grow, a song as you learn, the joys and the tears are all worth it, you know,
but the most important thing on this mama’s heart, in truth – is that you love Jesus, because He’s given everything for you.
You see, there is no One in the whole entire world that loves you like Jesus,
not even your mom. She doesn’t even come close.
He’s been through every trial and test there is. He knows about all your thoughts and your fears, He’s even collected in a bottle your tears.
And He is with you, if you just don’t turn your back. Don’t turn your back on the One, the One who loves you the most.
Do you have breath? Do you have family? Do you have provision? (though scarce at times), but it’s just so you become hungry – hungry for Him. Hungry and thirsty for His word, it replenishes – time and time again. You can’t say, “I’ve tried all that, and to no avail!” That’s only a lie, because God’s love NEVER fails. This is a mama’s heart,
this is how we pray, because we love our children, children are God’s gift for us each day!
You see, this mama would pray that you enter the House of the Lord, and you think you know why, but I don’t think you do. It’s not only to be stirred by the strings, or the words that are spoken – but to walk in that House as if it was just you and God alone. To thank Him for your breath, to thank HIM for Himself alone. That He gave you a mama that taught you the way Home!
You see, mamas don’t live forever here on the earth, but the one’s that have Jesus never see death –
But God, He’s got His eyes forever on you and He longs for and yearns for your heart to be His.
The song has been penned and God says for us to speak it, “Don’t be drunk with wine,…but be filled with the Spirit.” “Prone to wonder Lord I feel it, prone to leave this God I love, Here’s my heart lord, take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above.”
Thank Him that He loves you, even if, and when, mama is gone. He loves you, He loves you, whether your walk is near or is far. “God is Love” you were taught, so go to His house and sit there alone, alone in a crowd even, and be there with Him. O children, O children, know that mama’s do pray, and for those that aren’t willing, that you would be, one day.
You see, labor is painful and labor can be long, but children, to mama, you are always a song. She’ll love you forever, she’ll like you always. She’ll be praying forever, so thank God for that! This mama pens these thoughts from her heart, so tomorrow you can read them.
Even though mama missed the mark on so many things, she hit the target on what mattered most: She so badly wanted you to know that “Yes, Jesus loves me” and it was “the Bible that tells me so.”
Dear children, dear children, we live in the last days! Yield to God, yield to God and not your own thoughts, your own ways.You see Satan wants you to think that God wants to take everything away – don’t you see, He’s given you all you have and wants to bless you always! Turn to Him, He is good, He is gentle, and He cares. You can trust Him, He is able to break every yoke, every chain – He’s aware!
He’s the God who sees, He’s the God who loves, He’s the God who is able, He is the Father above. So humble yourself in the sight of the Lord, and dear children feed, feed on His faithfulness and drink of His life. Your mama did tell you, and in the end, dear ones, I bet you will all say, after all the of your ‘labor’, and you go to the house of the Lord to give thanks,
you will feel so full, so happy and even at rest, you will say in your heart:
“my mama, she was right!”
