Good Mother Monday May 15, 2017

Greetings FB and Friends

I was so glad to see many of you yesterday as we gathered to fellowship and worship together on another Lord’s Day.  In addition to it being Sunday, it was also Mother’s Day.  We attempted to make the day special by presenting all the mothers with a rose and a video card. 
 
I must say that being a good mother does not require having a biological child.  Being a good mother is more about the role a person plays in someone’s life than about giving birth or providing material needs.  But a good mother needs to be a cultivator of honest things, a friend, a counselor, a constructive critic, a disciplinarian, an encourager, a motivator, an example and a teller of truth among other things.  These few but important roles will help to guide a person in the right direction and help them to make good choices. 
 
A person doesn’t have to have a biological child to fulfill these roles.  And what helps even more is when the mother knows and follows our Lord Jesus Christ.  So again, Happy Mother’s Day to all the women with or without a biological child of their own who are providing all the things that a good mother does for a person regardless of age who needs a mother in their life.  Have a good week in our Lord.
 
Blessings
