Praise for our mothers

Our mothers are the true day-to-day heroes. How blessed are those who’ve been nurtured by a Godly woman…one who takes the responsibility of raising her offspring under the guidance of her heavenly Father…who rises to every occasion to help support, encourage, and teach her offspring the way they should go, often selflessly and at every opportunity.

A good mother’s love often extends beyond herself. Sacrificially, she’ll deny herself before her children. She gives and gives until it’s time to give again—even as her children are grown, they will always be a part of her.

Next to Jesus, there is no other love like a mother’s love. Whether here on earth or at home with the Lord, we remember you today and every day with our utmost love and appreciation.

Mothers are God’s special gift to this world. Today, all mothers—grand, foster, and surrogate—are being celebrated. You are a blessing to your children and they are blessed to call you Mother. We hope you have a lovely day!
