Mom

Proverbs 30:11 Some people curse their father  and do not thank their mother. 12 They are pure in their own eyes,  but they are filthy and unwashed. 13 They look proudly around,  casting disdainful glances. 14 They have teeth like swords  and fangs like knives.They devour the poor from the earth  and the needy from among humanity.

As we approach Mother's Day 2010 take time to honor and thank your Mom. You may have had a wonderful Mother or one who could care less about you. Paul reminds us in Ephesians 6:2 "Honor your father and mother." This is the first commandment with a promise: 3 If you honor your father and mother, "things will go well for you, and you will have a long life on the earth."
Notice the admonition is not, "If your mother was good to you honor her." It is simply to honor her.

Today, set aside some time to dwell on the blessings your mother brought into your life. Write them down and if she is still living send them to her. Thank God for Mom.

Love in Christ,
