MOTHERHOOD – The Hand that Rocks the Cradle Rules the World

“Every one of you shall revere his mother and his father and keep My Sabbaths. I am the Lord your God.” Leviticus 19:3

“A mother’s arms are made of tenderness and children sleep soundly in them.” Victor Hugo.

“If I have done anything in life worth attention, I feel sure that I inherited the disposition from my mother.” Booker T. Washington.

“My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her.” George Washington.

“The mother is the one supreme asset of national life; she is more important by far than the most successful statesman, or businessman, or artist, or inventor, or teacher, or musician.” President Theodore Roosevelt.

The Hand That Rocks the Cradle Rules the World
by William Ross Wallace (1819-1881)

“Blessings on the hand of women!
Angels guard its strength and grace.
In the palace, cottage, hovel,
oh, no matter where the place;
would that never storms assailed it,
rainbows ever gently curled,
for the hand that rocks the cradle
is the hand that rules the world.

Infancy’s the tender fountain,
power may with beauty flow,
mothers first to guide the streamlets,
from them souls unresting grow —
grow on for the good or evil,
sunshine streamed or evil hurled,
for the hand that rocks the cradle
is the hand that rules the world.

Woman, how divine your mission,
here upon our natal sod;
keep – oh, keep the young heart open
always to the breath of God!
all true trophies of the ages
are from mother-love impearled,
for the hand that rocks the cradle
is the hand that rules the world.

Blessings on the hand of women!
fathers, sons and daughters cry,
and the sacred song is mingled
with the worship in the sky —
mingles where no tempest darkens,
rainbows evermore are hurled;
for the hand that rocks the cradle
is the hand that rules the world.”

Mothers give life, love, comfort, counsel, guidance, teaching and encouragement. They turn a house into a home and nurture families. Families are the basic building block of society and mothers have the most important responsibility in daily love and counsel raising children in the love and fear of the Lord.

My mother taught me to read before I began to go to school. She taught me to love books, to love knowledge and to love animals.

“Honour your father and mother’ which is the first commandment with a promise.” Ephesians 6:2
