Eyes that saw the swells and falls of a tur bulent world. Weary eyes that times and could look toward tomorrow when things got easier. The eyes that watched and waited v for change ~ and were moved to tears during the peaks and valleys of life's tedious journey. Dear mother, some of bs have your keen hearing. That spe cial ability to hear far more than just words ? but the true feelings behind those words. That atten tive hearing that alerted you when the young ones suddenly got too _ quiet The ability to listen to both -side^-of story *n& somehow hear the "rear truth. And mother, some of us have your voice. A voice that soothed a crying child and filled the air as you rocked and hummed and worried about a loved one that was gone from home. A voice that encouraged and guided. A voice that filled a house with laughter and ears and minds with words of strength and hope. Mother, some of us have your shoulders. The shoulders that happy or sad faces would lay upon and awaiting arms would hold and comfort. Shoulders that seemed to bear the weight of the world and took the challenge of preparing the children for a life, where it was often a goal just to survive. Sweet mother, some of us have your strong back. So much happened to break your back in half ... but your inner strength was like a deep well, and just when you believed you'd touched the bottom, you find that >ou could go a little bit felt the lashes of oppression and the sting of indignation. A back that had to be strong to hold things together ? and stay the tie that binds the family. Mother, some of us inherited your heart. The love and joy that sprang forth from there could make friends out of enemies and believers out of the lost. Your heart was sometimes broken, but you kept the faith. There was always room for one more, not only^hryour- heart but in your home. First black mother, some of us have your soul, your inner beauty. The love of God down inside of your soul seemed to make you beam on the outside. It made others want what you had. That's when you told~ hem all about Jesus. Because your soul was so steadfastly anchored in the Lord, you weath many storms in your life. And whatever your lot, you kept saying that it well with your soul. For some of us, our experiences as black sons and daughters may cause us to feel discouraged and bewildered. But let us not forget the prayers that were prayed by our mothers that we may be right here, right now, the prosperity of a proud. God fearing people. And let us not for get the Holy One who was there for the first mother whenever she called out to Him. For He is still mighty even today ? and hears our pleas ? and can fulfill every want and despe. r With our eyes ? may we look past one another's faults and find the needs. May we "see" all that the Lord has done for us and count our many blessings. With our ears, let us listen to that still, soft voice that tells us right from : wrong. And let us hear the Word and believe, that we may have everlasting life. With our voices, praise and lift God up. With our shoulders, to embrace and show clarity and compassion one toward another. From time to time, a lot may be placed upon our backs which weighs us down. But the Lord will bear our heavy loads ? if we'll only let Him. Most-of all, tet us love Jehovah ? our God with all our hearts and all our souls and with all our vital forces, now and always. . For all that our black moth ers have gone through, it would have been impossible to make it without God. One thing that she passed down, that has been a blessing for the black sons and daughters, has been the knowl edge of the power of prayer. And of all the inheritances, oh what a joy to follow in the footsteps of a humble, praying mother who casted all of her cares on a gra cious, merciful Father. ? A. J curette Elles ?
