“From birth I was cast upon you; from my mother’s womb you have been my God”
Psalm 22:10
Mother is the supreme gift of God one is bestowed with. Everyone in this Universe believes it apart from religion, race and nationality. Children of every age acknowledge their mother’s self less love and affection by celebrating mother’s day in their own ways to bring a smile on The Lady of their foundation’s face.
A thought stir my feelings in a fairy-tale narration session with my daughter Rachel.Pinnochio is a well renowned Disney Character, a wooden puppet created by a childless wood carver. Gift of life was granted to Pinocchio by a fairy on wood carver’s wish. A cricket was appointed as Pinocchio‘s conscience to guide him about right and wrong until he turn into a real boy by being honest, brave and unselfish.
I was shaken by the thought Lord revealed to me through this little story. Being the youngest among 4 siblings, I was the most pampered child of my mom. My relation with my mom strengthens with the time. I used to consider her as my best pal, councellor,advisor,coach, lucky charm etc.Inspite of becoming a professional, a wife and mother, I depend upon my mom for every single thing whether a cooking recipe, home remedy ,career advice, home décor ideas, beauty tips even for prayer too. With the gradual experience of Lord’s enduring love and mercy in ups and downs of life, my conversation with my mum changed into sharing of new miracles in life from the asking favors of prayer and needs.
All glory to God’s gracious name! I realized the need of my mother as my conscience until Lord chiseled me through a process of knowing His love and plans in my life. He waited for me to turn into real individual through my mom’s guidance till maturity of understanding my Saviour, Jesus Christ.
