God's Blessing

“This could be a blessing in disguise”

I told myself one day

“Well, thank you, Mom”

I then just had to say,

For she had often spoken to me

In just this very way.


Life does have its challenges,

This we all must know,

Yet Mumsy’s words of wisdom

Have helped my life to grow,

And through my very existence

Allow the Spirit of God to flow.


When I hit a big brick wall

And my life went all to…. Well,

Mom has always been there for me

Listening to problems I had to tell,

Lifting me up and dusting me off

Each time on my knees I fell.


“I don’t think I can make it”

I don’t know the way!”

“Oh, you’ll make it,

Because you’re a Price,” she’d say.

I ask myself, “Without Mom,

Where would I be today?”


I am so very grateful

I’m telling you… oh brother,

I have looked around at many

And simply want no other.

I know that I am truly blessed

Having Annie as my mother.
