Tribute to Mothers

​Napoleon once said, “Let France have good mothers and she will have good sons.” Today, more than ever, we need mothers of character, mothers who will nurture their children in the ways of God. Many great men and women of God are still serving Christ as a result of a godly example by their mother. One day a year we especially honor God's creation of motherhood, but as Christians may we never forget it is right and pleasing to God to show respect and honor to our mothers all year.

​MOTHERS ARE SPECIAL
 
Mothers are very special
in God’s creation plan,
they were especially chosen
to give life to mortal man.
 
The heart of a mother
is tender, loving and kind.
This is why her children
are always on her mind.
 
Mothers gladly do without
and go the second mile;
they light the darkest night
with joy and a smile.
 
Mothers are very special
for a thousand unique reasons;
they are worthy of honor
regardless of the season.
 
(Poem by J.J. Turner)
