Verse of the Day - Proverbs 31:28-29

Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her: “There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!” ~ Proverbs 31:28-29 (NLT)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes, today is that famous non-holiday in May that restaurants adore -- Mother's Day! It's supposedly the biggest restaurant day of the year; hence, why my son and I (daughter still at college :-( are doing our traditional thing today...pizza and a movie at my house after church!

If you are a mom, I salute you! You have an amazingly tough job, and God has seen fit to give you the assignment. I know it has it's blessings, but I also know that it sometimes feels like a curse. Please know that you are changing the world, one little heartbeat at a time...

And if you're not a mom, then you have a mom! And yes, I realize that not all moms have "done it right", but nine times out of ten, they tried to raise you the best they knew how.

And for those whose moms have passed away (especially recently), this may be a hard day for you. I pray that God will comfort you as you reflect on good times you spent with her.

There's nothing quite like Moms, wouldn't you agree? We really shouldn't need a special day to remember them and honor them -- hopefully, we're doing that throughout the year. But, hey, the calendar says it's Mother's Day, so...where's the card? where's the candy? where're the flowers? :-)

May God bless your day!
