Mothers Against Sin Taking Over Their Children

M.A.S.C will be meeting on Monday nights at 7:30pm. We will be meeting at The C.F.C Faith Outreach Ministries Church Building which is located in Lake Waccamaw, NC across from the Boys & Girls Home. You may contact us at the number above for more information or about how to get a M.A.S.C group started in your local church or town.

Mothers, Hang in There

This is for all the mothers who have sat up all night with sick toddlers in their arms, saying, "It’s OK honey, Mommy’s here."

Who walk around the house all night with their babies when they keep crying and won’t stop?

This is for all mothers who yell at their kids in the grocery store and swat them in despair when their children stomp their feet and want ice-cream before dinner.

For all the mothers who read "Bedtime stories" twice a night for many years. And then read it again, "Just one more time."

This is for all the mothers whose heads turn automatically when a little voice calls "Mom?" in a crowd, even though they know their children are at home.

This is for all the mothers who sent their kids to schools with stomach aches, assuring them they will be fine once they got there, only to get calls from the school teacher an hour later asking them to please pick them up, right away.

For all the mothers who bite their lips sometimes until they bleed when their 14 year olds dye their hair green or purple or both; and pierce rings on their noses or belly buttons.

This is for young mothers stumbling through diaper changes and sleep deprivation and mature mothers learning to let go.

This is for you all. So hang in there and ask God to help you!

A Mother’s Prayer

Dear Lord, It’s such a hectic day,

with little time to stop and pray,

for life’s been anything but calm,

since you called me to be a mom.

running errands, matching socks,

building dreams with wooden blocks,

cooking, cleaning, finding shoes,

and other stuff that children lose.

closing lids on bottled bugs,

wiping tears and giving hugs,

opening last week’s mail to read,

so where’s the quiet time I need?

yet, when I steal a moment lord,

just at the sink or ironing board,

to ask the blessings of your grace,

I see then in my small one’s face.

that you have blessed me all the while,
