Mothers are always so highly spoken of; we are known for being superwomen. It is often said that we can do anything. Some believe we even have superpowers. True, there are so many great qualities to being a mother, I know this first hand. However, I've also come to know that one of the hardest things for us to do is let go of our children. Cutting the Cord: Unleashing A Mother's Prayers is the guiding force to being able to release our children back to God. This book was completely inspired by God and it makes me think of Hannah when she prayed so hard to God for a baby. When God blessed her with the baby, she gave him back to Him. This was my inspiration for writing this book Cutting the Cord: Unleashing a Mother's Prayers. It gives us the strength and the tools necessary to be able to commit our children back to God.
