Sunday Scripture ~ Mother's Day

<sup>Mother's Day is a special time set aside to honor mothers.  
Your mother is the first person to teach you about love. 
She is the one that gave you life.  She teaches, corrects, 

and encourages you as you are growing up in this world.  
Mothers wear so many hats, teacher, coach, psychologist, 
and best friend, just to name a few.  Mothers always hold 
a special place in our hearts whether they are with us on 
the Earth or if they are with Jesus.  Say a special prayer 
for the Mother in your life or another Mother that you 
know today.</sup> 

⁹ Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. And teach them to your children and your grandchildren, ¹⁰ especially concerning the day you stood before the Lord your God in Horeb, when the Lord said to me, ‘Gather the people to Me, and I will let them hear My words, that they may learn to fear Me all the days they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children.’

                                            ~ Deuteronomy 4:9-10

 

M - O - T - H - E - R
"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell
"MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.
Howard Johnson (c. 1915)
