He allowed your grandmother and others to "Help". God will fill the

gaps with others for those not able or capable of caring for His little

lambs!! Isn't He SO WONDERFUL!!! He smiled upon your family by

bringing you to the truth. Those two little daughters are blessed!

Bro. Scott, May the LORD JESUS bless you, and your sweet wife and

children, in Jesus Name!!!

Yes God has been kind to me ,more than I deserve.
Speaking of grandmothers my Grandmother ANNALEE Hutchinson was totaly devoted to my Grandfather Ray Hutchinson who died with Emphysema, he was on a breathing machine but my Grandmother cared about her husband ,She died with cancer but she was a devoted woman.
My grandmother believed in old fashioned country cooking she could cook ,and I miss her cooking.

I will post an update when we find out so everyone can be praying for her.

And yes, I do have four children - a blended family ranging from 22 to 16, and an awesome two year old grandson!!

Sis. Tamor,

That is wonderful and God may continue to bring your Mom through to

total victory over this disease, in Jesus Name! He IS able to do any and

everything. Nothing is impossible with God!

I thought I remembered you having children. I suspect that little two yr.

old is a much loved little guy. We have a two yr. old grandson who is so

cute right now. May you have a great Mother's Day, in Jesus Name!!

I pretty much failed my way thru kindergarden/first grade/second grade. But when I got to third grade, I had this old wise teacher that told mom and dad that I needed some help.

the jist of it was, I went on ritalin and got to go to "special classes" boy that was fun. Anyway mom decided that I would only take the medicine during school time even though the doctor told her it would calm me down and make her life easier 24/7. She felt my health was more important.

This also meant that by the time I got home from school, the drud had worn off and homework had to be done with no ritalin. Mom figured out my attention span was about 15 minutes. So every single day for 2 years she sat with me to do my homework. 15 minutes of work, then outside to play for 15 minutes, then repeat until homework was done.

we did this for all of the 3rd grade and 4th grade. By the last 6 weeks of 3rd grade, I was on the honor roll, and had gone from the bottom reading group (1st grade level) to the top reading group (5th grade level). I remained on the honor roll (most of the time) until I graduated highschool

By the end of the fourth grade, my mom and I had worked out how to train me to study and by the fith grade I was on my own. I got off the ritalin in the second six weeks of 5th grade, and never looked back.

If it werent for my mom, I would have been in serious trouble. I know guys that I grew up with who had the same issues I did, and by highschool they were real trouble makers, hooked on drugs and ended in jail.

Mom saved me.

We need more Moms home with their children and less drugs. Thanks for sharing Ferd, your Mom is to be honored, as you are doing.

My mother is a woman who is, what I would consider, a prayer warrior. A woman who loves her family. I am very thankful for the prayers my mother has prayed for me. There are very important people that have come into my life that are the direct result of my mother's prayers. Her prayers have allowed situations to happen to me to make me better, have stopped situations from coming against me, and prayed for protection over me. I am very thankful for the prayers of my mother.

I am also thankful that my mom has lived a Godly influence for us to look upon. She has lead by example. My mom is a caring individual who is an individual of great worth.

I am blessed that God gave me my mom.

Sis. Tamor,

They are SO grand. Someone asked me one time if I thought the

grandchildren were better than having children. I replied that No,

not better, different, but both beloved in their own place!!

I pray that before next Mother's Day, your Mom will be done with

the cancer thing and all will be well, in Jesus Name! And that she will

be filled with the Spirit of the Living God and singing His praises, in

Jesus Name!!

Blessings,

Bro. SoCaliUPC,

What a beautiful tribute to your dear Mother! I know if she reads your

post she will probably almost burst with pride (thankfulness) for her

son. You are blessed to have such a caring and loving mother who is a

praying mother!!!

Believe me...time and time again, I am very thankful for the prayers of my mother.

I have always had a great relationship with my mom. I believe that God blessed me with the best mother in the world.

I was raised in an apostolic church from the time I was 5 years old. She has lived the life before me, and been a wonderful Christian example to me. I haven't always been what I should be, but Mom was always there to support me-- and to pray for me until I was back where I needed to be.

I want to be more like my Mom.

I could tell you all kinds of stories about when I was a kid, and different things that my mom did, times that I know she went without things for herself so that all her children could have something special. Lots of us could tell those kinds of things about our moms.

There's one thing that really sticks out in my mind as the most unselfish thing that my mother ever did for her children.

On the day before my brother's wedding-- the entire family had gone to stay overnight in Nashville to be there for the wedding rehearsal. Before we left for Nashville, my mom's mother had been put in the hospital with an infection- at the time they weren't sure what was going on, but they had put her on IV antibiotics. My mom's sister was keeping her updated on Grandmother's condition by cell phone.

After the wedding rehearsal and we'd all gone back to our motel rooms-- my mother received a call from her sister, saying that Grandmother had slipped into a coma. Mom called each of our motel rooms and asked us to pray.

The next morning, we all got ready--went out to breakfast and went over to the church for the wedding. When the wedding was over and my brother and his wife left the church-- the rest of the family left and came back to bring a bunch of wedding gifts back to the house where my brother and his wife were going to live. When we got everything unloaded and put into the house-- my mother just sat down on the couch and put her face in her hands. I knew what had happened.. It was then that I first found out that her mother had died that morning-- just minutes before the wedding started Mom had received the call.

I don't know how my mom held it together that day-- I'm sure that God comforted her more than we ever could have anyway. I know I would have been falling apart, but Mom didn't. She kept that phone call to herself until all the day's festivities were over and we were all back at home. I asked her why she didn't let some of us know sooner, so that we could be there for her. She said she didn't want my brother and his wife to have such news to put a damper on their wedding day. In fact, they didn't even tell my brother that grandmother had died until he returned from his honeymoon a couple of days later.

I am waiting for our dear brother Thad to give us a statement about his

precious mother. I admire him as he lives with and takes care of his mother

who is way up in age. She is in her eighties if I remember correctly. He is

blessed to still have his Mom and I know God sees this caring son and well

approves as He is big on "Honoring your Father and Mother". He told us in

His Word. In fact He commands it to be done. Not as a burden but to do it

as unto the LORD.

Bless you, Bro. Thad and also your sweet mother, in Jesus Name!!
