Letter to my Spiritual Mother

Dear Mamu,

Thank you for being my spiritual Mum
Showing me who our Father is and who Jesus is
Thank you for helping me understand stuff
Helping me know what right and wrong is

Thank you for welcoming me into your family
Loving me and letting me feel God's love too
Thank you for cheering me up
Helping me remember our great God

Thank you for bearing me to the faith
And teaching me how to read the Bible
Thank you for prompting me to continue learning
And always reminding to read my Bible

Thank you for correcting me when I need it
Scolding me when I have to be
Thank you for teaching me, Mamu
I thank God for you joyfully

Because we are still sinners
And living in a fallen world,
I pray that we remain faithful
Glad to see Mamu is faithful to God

I thank God for opening his arms
letting me experience what adoption means
welcoming me into his family
having me a spiritual family
having both spiritual parents
to teach me who he is

I love to keep on returning God's blessings
They are amass, yet I have not many words
To bless God back

Thank you Mamu

I miss you,
