Happy Mother's Day weekend!...yes, I've extended the celebration from one day to a whole weekend. For as God knows, mothers deserve it. The biblical witness regarding mothers is intricately intertwined with womanhood and being created in the image of God. The biblical witness regarding motherhood demonstrates that many mothers are healthy, whole, tough, faithful, resolved, life-giving, and compassionate, and yet we recognize not all are. We also give thanks for those who reflect and share these values outside the boundaries of motherhood in our lives. Abraham Lincoln stated it well, "No person is poor who has a Godly mother." So for the richness you have received from your mother or the women who've influenced you most, give thanks!  

Blessings,
Pastor Rob
