THOUGHTS……………….
In our role as mothers – remember - Every woman is a
daughter and every woman had a mother. The bond of
mother and daughter relationship is so profound, so deep
and long-lasting, that very often even after your mother has
passed on, sometime 20 years on, you still miss her. We
should no longer allow a mother to be labelled just a mom.
It is on her back that great nations are built. We should no
longer allow any woman’s voice to be drowned out or
disregarded. As we affirm other woman and as we teach our
sons, husbands, friends to hold them in highest regard. we
honour both the mothers whose shoulders we stood on and
the daughters who will one day stand tall on ours.
PERSEVERANCE OF FAITH
Matthew15: 28 - FAITH
“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let
it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter
was healed from that very hour”
Today I am honoured to share a perspective with
you; on the role we as women have and have to play
in society and in our communities. As women we
have to continue to fight , stand up, stand tall, stand
strong as we fight for our children!!!

Great Faith”
STORIES OF 2 BIBLICAL WOMEN AND 2 MODERN DAY WOMEN
But wise and prudent as she was, she WOULD NOT HAVE,
held out to the end and obtained the blessing she desired
for her daughter, IF IT WAS NOT FOR HER FAITH.
We May be quite sure that the one thing especially
noteworthy in this woman’s case was her Faith, as Christ
said: “O Woman of great faith”. He did not say Great is thy
love for thy child, great is thy earnestness. But he put his
finger on the power that urged her forward and He said;
“O Woman of great faith”
