Christian mothers, your child may be far away from the sheltering home, voyaging on the stormy sea, or dwelling in some distant climate beyond your voice. But he  is still within the reach of the mightiest power a mother can wield – the power  of prayer! And although you cannot throw around him your maternal arms to shield  him from the evil of the world, you can invest him with your wrestling believing  petitions, and secure on his behalf the Arm which encircles the globe, and is  mighty to save. Oh that the Church of God may be filled with such praying  mothers!
