mothers of the Bible – v2

mothers of the Bible

windows on faith

shattered, broken

just like all of us

no better, no worse

mothers of the Bible

showing us love, faith,

partners with the fathers

sometimes widows, others

knitting God’s story

mothers of the Bible

to be honored, challenged

useful clay vessels

just like all of us

no better, no worse

let us be examples, witnesses

showing the love of God

light in this dark world.

let us be examples, witnesses

prophets of the Most High

servants of Almighty God
