It is impossible to estimate the power of a praying mothers influence. She acknowledges God in all her ways. She takes her children before the throne of grace and presents them to Jesus, pleading for His blessing upon them. The influence of those prayers is to those children as a well-spring of life. Those prayers, offered in faith, are the support and strength of the Christian mother.... Jesus is the mothers sympathizing friend and counselor. He encouraged mothers to bring their children to Him when He was upon earth. He remembered that He had a mother, and his sympathies were with all mothers. He remembered that He was once a child, subject to the trials, disappointments, and temptations of children. If this had not been the case He would not have been the pattern for all childhood, youth, and manhood. Jesus sympathizes not only with the care-worn mother but with her children. And when she comes to Him for instruction, grace, and wisdom, it will never be withheld. ~EGW
