About the Author
At the foundation of this gigantic family was a beautiful and loving lady. She was friendly and cordial to the visiting friends and ministers. A prayerful lady, she was always ready to minister to others while guiding the duties at home. Pregnant with 14 babies consumed much of her married life. A few miscarriages along the way drew her closer to Jesus as she walked through the "valley of the shadow of death" many times. The anointing of the Holy Spirit was present to heal, revive, and comfort her while raising family. This virtuous woman grew strong enough by the grace of God to survive the everyday battles of homemaking, one of the highest callings on earth given by God.
