MOTHER YOU WERE RIGHT

 

Honor GOD, our Heavenly Father.  Put no other GOD before Him.

"Honor me and your earthly father you will live  a long wealthy life upon this land which the Lord your God has given you.

(ESPECIALLY WHILE I'M HOLDING THIS SWITCH IN MY HAND)"

Listen to Mother's instructions for
They are lifetime rewards about how to give of yourself and how to love your neighbor.

There are no do overs.  I would, with a few exceptions, live this life again.  I love the way you taught me, although some may think I'm strange.  If I was not ordinary, I could not testify to anything.

Mother, You warned me of consequences of  disobedience to God's Laws. I'll never stop loving you.

Your chastising did not feel good when I was a child, but Mother, I thank God, because He knew what He was doing, when He gave me to you.

We who are fortunate and still have a Mother to love.  Be sure to call, send cards and flowers, visit or why not all three.  I'll be thanking God for Mama at the Alter on bended knees.

 Let us all prepare to have a

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

What an exceptionally beautiful piece so full of truths carried forward to today. My mom is gone two years now, yet I can still hear her chuckling voice and feel her touch. Bless you and happy mother's day...

Be always safe,
