Cutting the Cord - by Marilyn Simmons (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Mothers are always so highly spoken of; we are known for being superwomen. It is often said that we can do anything. Some believe we even have superpowers. True, there are so many great qualities to being a mother, I know this first hand. However, I've also come to know that one of the hardest things for us to do is let go of our children. Cutting the Cord: Unleashing A Mother's Prayers is the guiding force to being able to release our children back to God. This book was completely inspired by God and it makes me think of Hannah when she prayed so hard to God for a baby. When God blessed her with the baby, she gave him back to Him. This was my inspiration for writing this book Cutting the Cord: Unleashing a Mother's Prayers. It gives us the strength and the tools necessary to be able to commit our children back to God.

Review Quotes

I enjoyed the book to the highest. As you stated, cutting the cord is hard to do at times especially for us parents. We sometimes have trouble cutting the cord with friends that are not beneficial to us; jobs that are hiding our true potential; ministries that we've outgrown. This book is going to be a tool for many who are needing more guidance in cutting the cord. I pray God's blessings over you as He continues to take you higher and enlarge your territory. - Evangelist Lecretia Williams Brandon

Marilyn Simmons is a phenomenal woman and gifted writer. This book is for fathers and guardians as well and it is powerful. I saw God work and move with each stroke of the computer keys. You would be doing yourselves a disservice not getting this book. I am extremely proud of my lovely wife. The best is yet to come. Keep unleashing Babe. - James Simmons

This book is written to reach and teach. The book has the ability to change the trajectory of the heart if read prayerfully. It's a needed discussion for Mothers who need help in releasing what God gave them to oversee. It calms the heart and reminds us of our job description. It's a positioning message for the heart of Mothers. It also gives tools in prayer that lead us to trust God who created us and the children He gave to us. The tools in this book will lead us to become wiser, better, and stronger. - Elder Valorie Horn

The book is an awesome read. I was blessed extremely by the prayers. It is hard as a mother to let go and see your children hurt when you do so but as you stated in the book they are never alone. God has been with them since day one. They are lent to us for a time. I also like the fact and acknowledgment of the parent and children learning together especially when breaking generational curses. The analogy about cutting the cord was mind-blowing. I had to cut the cord with my son years ago. I cried endlessly and it hurt so bad. However, it was necessary. I prayed and asked God for strength to endure because I knew he was headed for some hard times. God let me know that He had him. It was the best thing I have ever done. I had made some big mistakes by trying to hold on but when I let go God restored things double fold. This book just confirmed my steps in the Lord. It will definitely help parents who do not want to let go but need to. - Minister Sicily Bluitt
