A great Woman In Obscurity

She was neo-sixty years old
She represents many women in this world
Her life was an example of that of many women's who had been through a lot
She had had a rough life and she now lay calmly in a hospital bed
Doctors said she had suffered a stroke and was in a coma
The God of all gods knew better, she was having well needed rest

She was getting ready to take flight but before she could, all had to be just right
Her younger sister was lead to call her brother who was in a foreign land
God had used him before to pray their mother on her way on this same flight
As soon as brother heard the news he was lead to pray
He was made to realize this was part of God's calling on his life.

It was about a couple of hours later his sister called back and gave him the news
Our sister just went home to be with the Lord.
Her life was filled with ups and downs
She had bitter struggles all her life
Lined up with or parallel to the blessings in her lifetime

She gave birth to seven sons and one daughter
She is survived by four of her sons and her daughter
She was truly blessed to birth the most sons in her family
Now as she leaves here she already has one son to represent the father, one son to represent the son of God, and one for the Holy Ghost who went home before her
Oh, their names, Paul, Cecil and Mark.  

Life of A Sister

She was born the second child to her mother
Her sister was two years older than she was
They were innocent and happy helping their mother
Approximately five years later their mother had a third daughter
But Alas! Sadly the third daughter did not make it...

It wasn't long after another daughter was born to this family
Tears and grief turned to laughter
Their mother was happy but still felt an emptiness
In all her years of child bearing, she doesn't have a son
She prayed, and prayed like Hannah did centuries earlier
For God to give her a son

Well it wasn't long after that prayer
That God answered this mother
A year after her prayer, she gave birth to a son
She gave him a name from the Bible
And an alias just for herself of affection

Later someone entered her life from a failing marriage
He seemed like the right fit for a protector and provider
Or so it would seem for every man who joins himself to a single parent family
By now the two oldest sisters were teenagers
And they had no idea the turn their lives were about to take

First the oldest fell victim, then the younger
The oldest daughter was strong and fought for as long as she could
The younger sister just gave in every time she was confronted
Mother was informed but could do nothing
She was afraid of losing the contribution to her family which was quite helpful

The younger sister finally gave up
It was either suicide or run away
She chose the latter
And later came back with a man in her life and conception
She sought out a solution and found the best one for her situation
