"we’re All home alone."
Biblically, a husband is the head of the house
and legally, a pedestrian has the
right of way. Both are perfectly safe and within their rights as long as they do
not try to confirm it!
What NOT to Buy Your Wife for Mother’s Day ~
Mothers are the heart of the Home, and…
they would probably add much, much more.
No one deserves a special day all to herself
more than today's Mom.
I'd have to say: "To become a mother is not so difficult;
on the other hand, being a mother is very much so!
--Wilhelm Busch
"I will stand by my mother's God."
Mothering is influencing! At its best it is helping, raising and lifting. At it’s worst, it is belittling, degrading and wounding.
1. Mothers need to Treasure things! --Luke 2:51
If Jesus would have been in kindergarten, his mother would have had a memory box under her bed with his papers, drawings. . . !
What was the result? Jesus Grew
2. Mothers must have a Passionate Concern for their children. --Luke 2:48
Mothers must be those who do
everything in their power to
“find” their children!
3. A mother can set the Direction for the lives of those around her!
MOMS ~ you can make a difference in your home, our church and in our world as you:
Love your families in
such a way that
the only explanation for your love
causes them to look to God!
