Mothers wish...

A mother always wishes her daughter will remember the little things she taught her as a child. May we teach our children not

just the right things to do but the right way to walk, good eating habits, good manners and Biblical values too!

So when they are big they will remember our teachings and walk the right path, stay healthy and fit!

A Godly Mother's Greatest Reward...

Hi...

 You know what is a Godly mother's greatest reward?

(Read the quote below)

This would definitely be my greatest Reward!

And I will say that to my mom...!

This is from the 'Signs of the times' Nov 3rd 1881

Quote: 

Mother's greatest Reward

************************

  When at the Judgement seat the books shall be opened; when the "well done" of The Great Judge is pronounced, and the crown of immortal glory is placed upon the brow of the victor, many will raise their crowns in the sight of the assembled universe and pointing to their mother say, " She made me all I am through the grace of God. Her instructions, her prayers have lead me to my eternal Salvation."

This would be that mother's greatest reward.

Be blessed,

Happy Mother's day to all you precious moms here today and everyday!

A Proverbs 31 woman

A Proverbs 31 woman, may be a daughter, sister, mother, grand-mother, friend, aunt but above all this she's the Child of the Most High God, The King of Kings.

She's a daughter of a King!

Jesus(YESHUA) died for her too and loves her too!

" A woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates." (Proverbs 31:31) " A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life . . . She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue . . . Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." (Proverbs 31: 10-11, 25-26, 30, NIV)

"You are too special for Him to forget, too important for Him to neglect, too precious for Him to ignore. That's why He set you before His eyes and crafted you on His palms that He might remember you forever, as long as He lives. So be not discouraged, Jesus is concerned about you always."

God Bless you...

From a mom to her daughter...

HERE BELOW IS A BEAUTIFUL E-MAIL I RECEIVED. PASS IT ON TO ANYONE WITH AGED PARENTS.

~FROM MOM TO DAUGHTER~

 

 

 

 

 

 

" The Journey Of A Mother "~Author Unknown

" The Journey Of A Mother "

For those who are fortunate enough to still be blessed by having your Mom with you, this is beautiful...

For those who aren't... it is even more beautiful.

It takes my breath!

The young mother set her foot on the path of life.

"Is this the long way?" she asked.

And the guide said "Yes, and the way is hard. And you will be old before you reach the end of it.But the end will be better than the beginning"

Since the young mother was happy, she would not believe that anything could be better than these years. So she played with her children, she fed them and bathed them, and taught them how to tie their shoes and ride a bike and reminded them to feed the dog, and do their homework and brush their teeth. The sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried, "Nothing will ever be lovelier than this." Then the nights came, and the storms, and the path was sometimes dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and covered them with her arms, and the children said, "Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come." 

And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary. But at all times she said to the children, "A little patience and we are there." So the children climbed, and as they climbed they learned to weather the storms. And with this, she gave them strength to face the world. Year after year, she showed them compassion, understanding, hope, but most of all... unconditional love. The days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the mother grew old and she became little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage.

And the mother, when she lay down at night, looked up at the stars and said, "This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned so much and are now passing these traits on to their children." And when the way became rough for her, they lifted her, and gave her their strength, just as she had given them hers. One day they came to a hill, and beyond the hill, they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And mother said: "I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end is better than the beginning, for my children can walk with dignity and pride, with their heads held high, and so can their children after them. And the children said, "You will always walk with us, Mother, even when you have gone through the gates." And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her.

And they said:

"We cannot see her, but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. She is a living presence."

Your Mother is always with you.

She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street, she's the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick and perfume that she wore,

she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well, she's your breath in the air on a cold winter's day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the colors of a rainbow, she is Christmas morning.

Your Mother lives inside your laughter.

And she's crystallized in every tear drop.

A mother shows every emotion... happiness, sadness, fear, jealousy, love, hate, anger, helplessness, excitement, joy, sorrow... and all the while, hoping and praying you will only know the good feelings in life. She's the place you came from, your first home, and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy, but nothing on earth can separate you. Not time, not space... not even death !

" My mother planted seeds of faith

and watered them with love."

 (Alice Gray )

May we plant good seeds in our kids so they will bear good fruits. A lot they learn from us. What they hear from us, see us do register deep in their hearts and minds.

A Mother's Garden ~By: Connie Faust

*•..¸✿A Mother's Garden*•..¸✿ 

A tired young mother knelt down by her bed
at the end of a stress-filled day
Dear God, I need help and direction from You
to bring up my children Your way
She took her dusty Bible down from the shelf
and wearily started to read
but she drifted to sleep and started to dream
of a garden, ready for seed

She heard a sweet voice speaking loud and clear
My grace is sufficient for you
Just listen to the words I am speaking
whatever I say to you - do
The heart of each child is a garden
and it needs to be tended with care
I will give you all that you require
if you water your own heart with prayer
Warm nurture and firm admonition
are both needed to balance the soil
Come often to Me for instruction and strength
as in their hearts' garden you toil

The next day, she started preparing the ground;
she planned it with tender care
She wanted only the finest of plants
to grow in her garden there
She quickly planted some seeds of kindness
next to her rows of sweet peace
then gentleness and goodness side-by-side
she planted down on her knees
Slow-growing patience, self-control and joy
were all dropped in, one-by-one
When she added true faithfulness and love
she thought all her hard work was done

Suddenly weeds appeared in the garden,
just when her seeds began to sprout
so she carefully wielded the tool of faith
and dug the harmful weeds out
Then she nurtured and watered the seedlings
with the thirst-quenching Word of God
She staked her young plants with hand-woven cords
as they struggled to break through the sod
Just as her Lord had promised that night
she never was left all alone
He showed her the way and He guided her hand
as each tiny seed was sown

At last it was time for the harvest
the mother had given her best
The hearts of her children were fruitful for God
and she was eternally blessed

Mother's Love....

*********************
The Love of a Mother
********************
Mother's love is something
that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion
and of sacrifice and pain

It is endless and unselfish
and enduring come what may
For nothing can destroy it
or take that love away

It is patient and forgiving
when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or falters
even though the heart is breaking

It believes beyond believing
when the world around condemns,
And it glows with all the beauty
of the rarest, brightest gems

It is far beyond defining,
it defies all explanation,
And it still remains a secret
like the mysteries of creation

A many splendor miracle
man cannot understand
And another wondrous evidence
of God's tender guiding hand.

1 Corinthians 13 For Mothers..

Psalm 139:13
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb."
*********************************
( 1 Corinthians 13 For Mothers...)

AUTHOR UNKNOWN

If I live in a house of spotless beauty with everything in its place, but have not love,
I am a housekeeper not a homemaker.

If I have time for waxing, polishing, and decorative achievements,but have not love,
my children learn cleanliness not godliness.

If I scream at my children for every infraction,
and fault them for every mess they make,
but have not love,
my children become people-pleasers not obedient children.

Love leaves the dust in search of a child’s laugh.
Love smiles at the tiny fingerprints
on a newly cleaned window.
Love wipes away the tears before
it wipes up the spilled milk.
Love picks up the child before it picks up the toys.

Love accepts the fact that I am the ever-present “mommy,”
~the taxi-driver to every childhood event,
~the counsellor when my children fail or are hurt.

Love crawls with the baby, walks with the toddler, and runs with the child,
then stands aside to let the youth walk into adulthood.

Before I became a mother I took glory in my house of perfection.
Now I glory in God’s perfection of my child.

All the projections I had for my house and my children
have faded away into insignificance,
And what remain are the memories of my kids.

Now there abides in my home scratches
on most of the furniture,
dishes with missing place settings,
and bedroom walls full of stickers, posters and markings,
But the greatest of all is the Love
that permeates my relationships with my children.
" A mother's heart is a child's schoolroom."
