Our Mothers

Mothers are not perfect
Mothers sometimes are unfair
Mothers make lots of mistakes
Leaving their hearts vulnerable and bear…
Mothers are leaders
Of their children whom they hold dear
Mothers are strong and brave and cheer
For their children all their lives…
Mothers teach by example; you will survive
Mothers cry and Mothers laugh and Mothers always clap
For their children’s achievements
No matter how big or insignificant…
To Mothers, theirs are the best…
Sons, daughters, honor your mother and love her…
From a baby, to a teen…to adulthood
Our Mothers are misunderstood…
One day, darling girl, loving boy…
When you’re holding your baby, in your arms…
Then you will know the heart of your own dear Mother
Was made of love like no other…

Honor your father and mother.” This is the first commandment with a promise: Ephesians 6:2New Living Translation (NLT)

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
