A MOM'S COLORFUL WORLD
Does Mothering really matter?
Does anyone really care?
The Purple bead means I'm significant
A Godly mother is rare.
It's easy to lose my identity
Sometimes I am not sure who I am
The Pearl reminds me that I'm unique
In the eyes of the Son of Man.
Green speaks that I am growing
Developing patience every day
As circumstances confront me
And I see the need to pray.
When sometimes those around me
Don't seem to understand
The Red reminds me "I need the Lord"
To stay close and hold my hand.
The color Orange represents "caution"
When I'm not sure where to go
I need to move ahead slowly
The Lord will lead me - I know.
The Yellow color is a warning
For me to stop or slow down
To accept help from time to time
Friends offering assistance abound.
There are also times when I need a break
The Pink stands for having fun
So get away and try to relax
And play 'till the day is done.
As the days and weeks turn into months
It's easy to lose perspective
The Clear bead reminds me to think clearly
And ask the Lord how to live.
The color Blue stands for the vastness of life
There's a race that I need to run
I will live each day for Jesus,
'Till I hear the words "Well Done!"
