A Mother's Teaching

All that I am or hope to be, 

I owe to my mother. 

~Abraham Lincoln

A mother's teaching 

impacts a child's mind,

influences a child's choices,

motivates a child's direction,

inspires a child's faith,

shapes a child's will,

and enlightens a child's heart.

~Roy Lessin

  

I will instruct you and show you the way to go;

with My eye on you, I will give you counsel.

~Psalm 32:8

With heart and voice,

With hands and face,

No one can take a mother's place.

~Roy Lessin
