A Mother's Influence


Remember Susan Smith the mother from SC who drown her children?  The nation was in shock!   Susan Smith buckled her children in the car and let it slide into the lake, believing it will mend the broken relationship. Both her sons, 3-year-old Michael Smith, and 14-month-old Alexander Smith, lay dead when she innocently pleaded on the national television for 9 days for their rescue and return. All this was for the sake of having a relationship with local wealthy man.
Solomon said there is nothing new under the sun.  Athalia the mother of Ahaziah killed all the children of the royal family.  (II Chronicles  22:10)
Mother's you have incredible influence either for good or wickedness. 
II Chronicles 22:3-4 Forty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began his one-year reign in Jerusalem. His mother was Athaliah, a granddaughter of Omri. He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother was his counselor to do wickedly.
