When we visit "Big Momma's" house after she has passed, or reminisce through old photos, do you think about the prayers she prayed for you? What do you think she prayed for over your life. Her child(ren), grandchild(ren), and bloodline coming after her?

" I love questions that make me think. It gives me an incentive to have a conversation to get the answers if I don't know them already. Most people don't like to think, let alone conversate; that is why you have to be careful whom you are asking for advice." -Alston Shropshire
