"King Lemuel's Mother" is a character reference from Proverbs 31 in the Holy Bible. Theologians believe "King Lemuel" refers to "King Solomon" and his mother is believed to have been "Bathsheba".
The woman described in the chapter paints a role many Christian women ascribe to and admire because of her qualities, strengths, wisdom and work ethic.
In her time, she made her own clothes, worked long hours, had food on the table for all, sold merchandise, and even planted a vineyard! (Did you see that....a vineyard! Just making sure you read that.) It's wasn't her hands and her work ethic that drove her but what she planted within her heart and mind.
The whole chapter can be read here, if you are so inclined: Proverbs 31
