A psalm for Mother’s Day

Meredith Jackson Smith

My God is my Mother. She cares for me.
I dwell in Her peaceful home, safe and secure.
She calls calmly for me to come to Her.
She tells me who I am.
She teaches me all I need to know,
shows me the way to go.
Even when darkness is around me,
I am not afraid, for She is with me.
Her presence and Her love, they comfort me.
I sit at Her table with all of Her children.
She feeds us. We have plenty.
She blesses me with gifts of joy.
I have enough to share.
I know that nothing can come between us.
I have Her strength and glory.
She gives me life.
We are together forever.
