MOTHERS

“She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness. She watches over the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her,” Proverbs 31:26-28 ESV. That just about nails it. These are the mothers I know, honor, and love. I have been especially blessed my entire life, having had amazing mothers throughout my family and multiple spiritual mothers. No role in life rises any higher than that of the women who birth us, raise us, care for us, pray for us, and hold us in their arms. Today, my prayer is that God will pour our special blessings upon all mothers everywhere who demonstrate the characteristics of His love in ways only a mother can. LORD, thank You for all the blessings You offer, and I especially thank You for our mothers.
