The short anecdotes and stories have been gleaned from articles Mary Boyd Alley wrote over many years for her church newsletter. All have been revised and updated for you.
These vignettes are for some young mother who has been up all night with a sick baby, and who wants to relax a few minutes with something easy to read that will lift her spirits. It may be for a matron in the suburbs whose telephone number is on the school forms of a dozen children for "emergency," because she is the only mother home in her neighborhood. A grandmother may see it in a bookstore and send it to "my daughter in Peoria who has two pre-schoolers." A working woman may pick it up to help her unwind after a stressful day’s work. A home-educating mother may want to read "adult literature," but not have time for a novel.
Anyone who has or likes children, who cooks, cleans, or sews, has frustrations, loves picnics, the Fourth of July, and redbirds, will identify with these analogies that draw our attention to the Word of God.
