Do you see those faces before you?
Those sometimes cherubic faces?
Those mischievous get into trouble faces?
Those faces that make you laugh and cry and wonder?
Yes, THOSE faces...the ones you raise and care for?
Do you know what you are doing with those faces mama?
You are building. Building the next generation.
Shaping, forming, creating, the next generation of folk.
Who in their own turn will
Shape, form and create the generation that comes after.
It's what you are doing mama,
Don't forget it in the midst of the busyness and turmoil of life.
In the laughter and the joy.
You are building lives.
It's NOT all in your hands.
You have a helper who is the best builder of all.
Lean on that builder as you do building of your own.
That's all you have to do mama... Lean on a builder as you build younger lives.
