My Mother’s Apron
From my Mother’s waist it hung
It always was in place
It smelled of Sunshine pinned to the line
In calico, gingham and lace
The pocket held a treasure trove,
told the story of her day
A marble…
a clothespin…
my hair ribbon too
Tucked in along her way
It soothed my scrape
It dried my tears
It’s corner cleaned the smudge
It was always dusted with baking flour
At Christmas, a bit of fudge
Upon it’s gathers
I’d rest my head and tell her of my woes
What precious words it surely heard…
Heaven records and knows
With her arms about me
My head upon her knee
I would play with her apron strings
while she would speak to me
Speak to me of our Lord and God
Tell me of His grace
But most of all
I learned of Him
While looking up into her face
The Love that shown from her eyes to mine
Taught me all I needed to know
I learned it there
in her aproned lap
How to live…
How to love…
How to grow…

I created this, so that I could glorify those I was created to glorify…My Lord and my God, [ glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's 1Cor 6:20] and my husband Raymond Mallery,[the woman is the glory of man 1Cor 11:7] I have been so very blessed.
I am spending my devotion time with my Lord searching the Psalm for all the Wonderful things that the Lord says He will do for me. I am blessed beyond words in this exercise of Faith. Try it, I urge you. Find a beautiful journal, or create a beautiful journal and begin with Psalm1 and begin to record what the Lord says that He will do for you. Strength in the day of adversity. Stand on those promises.
The Lord says that ” Praise is comely for the Upright.” Psalm 33:1, Psalm 147:1 Praise is the lost beauty ingredient. Indeed we were created to glorify and we are only fulfilled as a woman and filled with His Joy and Pleasure when we do! May He be honoured and may you be blessed every time you visit this site. Keep glorifying Him!
