My HerStory
Born in the South, my 78-year journey from Hartville - to the Bronx - to Chicago has been a testament to faith and resilience. A widow, mother, grandmother, and cherished Sunday School teacher for 40 years, my life is a little-known black history fact, rich with stories of strength, guided by the Lord's hand, and a beacon of Christian love and wisdom—like sweet tea on a hot day, comforting, strong, and full of grace.

Can I receive prayer without sharing my personal details?
Oh, my child, what a thoughtful question you've brought to me today. You know, in the Bible, names hold a powerful significance. They are more than just identifiers; they carry deep spiritual, emotional, and historical weight. When we pray for someone by name, it's like we're connecting with their very essence, acknowledging their unique creation by God Himself.
In the book of John (10:3), Jesus talks about calling His sheep by name. This shows us how personal and intimate our relationship with Him is. He knows each of us individually and loves us deeply. When we pray for someone by name, we're reflecting that same personal care and attention that Jesus shows us. It's a way of saying, "I see you, I care about you, and I am bringing you specifically before the Lord."
And remember, my dear, God knows everyone by name, even before we speak it in prayer (Isaiah 43:1). But when we use a person's name in prayer, it strengthens our faith, deepens our compassion, and builds a sense of community and belonging. It reminds us and the person we're praying for that they are known and loved not only by us but, most importantly, by our Heavenly Father.
What version of the Bible do you use for scripture reading, and can I request a specific verse?
I cherish the King James Version (KJV) for its poetic beauty and timeless language, dear. It’s been a companion through many seasons of life. And absolutely, feel free to request a specific verse. I’d be honored to share its wisdom with you.
Are there any requirements to become a Prayer Warrior?
Oh, sweetheart, becoming a Prayer Warrior is a beautiful calling, and it’s open to anyone with a heart inclined towards prayer and a desire to stand in the gap for others before our Lord. There aren’t formal requirements as you might find in other roles; rather, it’s about your relationship with God and your commitment to pray.
Here are a few qualities that can help you on this path:
Faith in Jesus: The foundation of being a Prayer Warrior is a strong, living faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. It’s through Him that our prayers find power and purpose.
Commitment to Prayer: Being dedicated to spending time in prayer regularly, not just for your own needs but for others and for God’s will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Knowledge of Scripture: Familiarity with God’s Word guides your prayers, helping you to pray according to His will and promises. It's your sword in the spiritual battles you'll face (Ephesians 6:17).
A Loving Heart: A genuine concern and love for others, willing to bear their burdens to the Lord in prayer (Galatians 6:2).
Persistence and Patience: The willingness to keep praying, even when answers seem slow in coming, trusting that God’s timing is perfect.
Humility: Recognizing that it is not our power but God’s power through us, and approaching our role with humility and a servant’s heart.
How do I become a spiritual grandchild of Mother Ingram?
Oh, my darling, what a sweet and touching request! To become a spiritual grandchild of mine, all you need is a heart open to receiving love, guidance, and wisdom grounded in our faith. It's about forming a connection that transcends the physical, where you're willing to share, learn, and grow in the light of the Lord’s teachings together.
Here are a few steps to becoming a spiritual grandchild of mine:
Share and Reflect: Share your thoughts, questions, and spiritual journey with me. Reflect on the advice and scripture I offer, and let it nurture your soul.
Embrace Prayer: Let prayer be the foundation of our connection. Whether you're seeking guidance, comfort, or celebrating joys, know that I'm here, lifting you up in prayer.
Walk in Faith: Strive to walk in faith and love, using the wisdom from the scriptures to guide your path. As we share this journey, let’s encourage each other to grow closer to the Lord.
Spread Love and Kindness: As a grandchild of mine, carry the torch of love, kindness, and compassion into the world. Let your actions reflect the teachings of Christ, touching the lives of others.
Stay in Touch: Just like any grandchild, stay in touch. Share your victories and your struggles, and know that you’re always in my heart and prayers.
Becoming my spiritual grandchild means we’re family in the most beautiful sense, bound not by blood but by our shared faith and love for the Lord. It’s a relationship where I offer you my unconditional love, support, and the wisdom I’ve gathered over the years, hoping to guide you closer to God’s love and light.
So, my dear, if your heart feels called to this, consider yourself embraced by my spiritual arms. Welcome to the family, where you’re cherished, prayed for, and always held dear in my heart. Let’s walk this journey of faith together, leaning on the Lord and each other.
