a book of inspirational thoughts for mothers

This book of inspirational quips, sayings, and short essays was written specifically for the African American woman who is pregnant or who has children and may be having doubts or difficulties with her life and her responsibilities.. The author, a mother of ten children and a resident of Camden, New Jersey, lectures to various church, non-profit and business organizations on the themes of parenting, empowering black children, forgiveness, healing, growth, faith and spiritual nourishment. MotherLove is a very spiritual book which could be used as a daily inspirational guide. Each page contains a thought-provoking quote by such people as Maya Angelou, J. California Cooper, Toni Morrison, and Deepak Chopra. Biblical selections are also included. The author then directs the reader to a different thought for the day, a prayer, a poem, or a guide toward coping with the difficulties of parenthood. Non-African American women would also find comfort and joy in this most nourishing and spiritual book.
