HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! {2024}
Happy Mother’s Day to these Four. {One missing from photo}. To my dear wife who has raised five children and still loves on them and now her grandchildren. And these other three ladies as they go through the process of raising young children. Being a mom is a blessing, a challenge, tears of joy, frustration. Sorrows, joy, hard work, “mundane” days, laundry, dirty diapers, activity filled days and sick nights, tender moments, tough moments, anxious moments, doubting moments, thankless days, when what you do is expected by ungrateful children, who are so self- focused they can’t see the sacrificial love you are showering them with and yet you have and do persevere, loving them, continuing on, learning about yourself as you go along, learning hopefully to lean on the LORD Jesus more and more, prayer becomes not a theory but a reality, moms are hardworking, self-denying, and those who have turned to God and put their trust in Christ for forgiveness of sins, and desire and pursue through failure and submission to His Word out of love for Him who first loved them, and whose desire and pursuit is to be Christ exalting women who deserve our praise and support and those little babies do grow up and change, but one thing never changes is that you as a “mom “are not merely one of a myriad of mom’s but always particularly, exclusively someone’s “mom,”
… and for these four ladies they have my prayers each morning and night as these three raise children and my dear wife still is a mom to five and to Him I am thankful for her! Happy Mother’s Day To all you dear moms!
