I thought I would post similar to what others are posting right now…something on mothers.  I won’t be writing about my mother though.  She went home to be with Jesus in March of 2004 and I wrote about her on the anniversary of her home-going here.  The only other mother I have a personal knowledge of is the mother of my two daughters.   Jo was and is a good mom to them.  She has shown them a quiet submission to the One she committed her life to; a steadfast love to the man she committed her life to; a “second mile” kind of love to the two girls she committed her life to; and a yearning kind of love for the little man she has committed her life to and who is now in about every waking thought. A sure cause for divorce would be for me to move and take a church further away from him.  🙂  (Not that I am planning on doing that any time soon).    That would really put her steadfast love to the test!   I am honored to be her husband and to be the father of the children God blessed us with.

One of the most meaningful posts I read this weekend was this one.  I saw this clip at several places this past weekend.  The most recent was here.    I hope you will take a look at it.  It is pretty funny.

BUT THIS IS THE ONE I PLAYED THIS SUNDAY PRECEDING MY SERMON.  IT PACKS A POWERFUL MESSAGE

Hope you enjoy both video clips.  I also hope you took the time to do let your mom/wife/grandmother/whomever how much you love and appreciate them.   Did you?  How did you spend your Mother’s Day?
