"GOD SAVED THE BEST 'TIL LAST"
"And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living." Genesis 3:20
We celebrate many days on which we give honor to various people or things that have had a great impact on our society, our country or our world. We honor soldiers, presidents, freedom, noteworthy citizens; but, without a doubt our honor and appreciation is most excellent when it is bestowed on our mothers. Where would we be without our mothers. We wouldn't be! Abraham Lincoln said, "All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel mother."
They gave us life, and then nurtured us and fed us and trained us to be what we are. This is a great day for some and a sad day for others. Whatever it may be, my prayer is that each will reflect lovingly on his or her mother.
God could not be in every place
With loving hands to help erase
The teardrops from each baby's face,
And so He thought of mother.
He could not send us here alone
And leave us to a fate unknown;
Without providing for His own,
The outstretched arms of mother.
God could not watch us night and day
And kneel beside our crib to pray,
Or kiss our little aches away;
And so He sent us mother.
And when our childhood days began,
He simply could not take command.
That's why He placed our tiny hand
Securely into mother's.
The days of youth slipped quickly by,
Life's sun rose higher in the sky.
Full grown were we, yet ever nigh
To love us still, was mother.
THANK YOU MOTHERS AND HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
In Christian Love,
