I'm Okay, Momma!

Jackie Freeman

Description

In a gentle tale illustrating the power of parental guidance, a mother teaches her child lessons of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

One day Jackie Price's Grandma fetched her little granddaughter when school ended, then they stopped to visit a neighbor. As the minutes ticked by, Jackie's mother grew concerned and set out searching for her mother and daughter. Where was her little girl? The five-year-old saw her mother approaching and understood the concern on her face. She opened the neighbor's screen door and shouted, "I'm Okay, Momma! I'm Okay!" Jackie forgot this episode as the years passed, but her mother never did. Shortly before Joy Price died, she reminded Jackie of this memory and told her, "I know you will always be okay, Jackie."



The book inspired by this incident is the story of a loving mother who showers her daughter with love, care, compassion, discipline, and kindness. She teaches Christian values, including the Fruit of the Spirit, by example.

To Momma

Not everyone is as fortunate to have a childhood

as mine – but everyone deserves one. I’m Okay,

Momma, because of the love you showered

on me. I’ve witnessed first-hand the lessons

of the Fruit of the Spirit taught in Galatians 5:

Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness,

Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self Control.

With Love,

Jackie
I’M OKAY, MOMMA!

‘Cause before I was born,

you prayed for me,

asking that God will

always watch over me.
You showed me:

LOVE
