Today, we celebrate our mothers. We even have Father's Day in June. A child in KIDZ Street asked, 'When is Kids Day?' 'Every other day!' someone answered:) Well, we are all called children of God. All of us belong to His family. God chose mothers to bring us into His world & raise us. Wise mothers who teach us about God are special to Him. Proverbs 31 tells about Godly mothers, '...she gives instructions with kindness,' is one description. My mom was kind to me even when I wasn't very kind to her. Jesus loves us even when we aren't very lovable. We can tell our moms Happy Mother's Day, but verse 28 reminds us, 'Her children stand & bless her.' How can we bless our moms? Not just today, or not just saying we love them. Think of ways we can show them. And as Christians, do we just say we believe in God, or just tell others we love Jesus? No, we show others we follow Him by how we treat each other. Being kind, generous, patient & loving is the best Mother's Day present ever!
