“Honor your father and mother”—which is the first commandment with a promise—“that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth” (Eph 6:2-3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a little town in Taylor County, West Virginia, Ann Jarvis in 1907 began a campaign to establish a national Mother’s Day. The special day would fall on the anniversary of her mother’s death. So on May 10th, 1908 the day was observed in Philadelphia Pennsylvania where Jarvis had recently moved. It wasn’t until 1914 that President Woodrow Wilson made the official announcement to the nation that every 2nd Sunday of May would be a national day of observance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mother’s Day is a special day in which we take a moment to honor our mothers. It’s not very often that we hear good news these days about the mothers who as it says, “rock the cradle that rules the world.” I am convinced that the world is a better place of good mothers. Dedicated mothers produce determined and outgoing children. We all know that it takes a considerable amount of determination to make a difference in today’s world. So take some time this Mother’s Day to remember mom. The Apostle Paul reminds his “son in the faith” (Timothy) where his personal faith originated. “I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded now lives in you also” (2 Tim 1:5).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This article is dedicated moms who have made many sacrifices and uttered many prayers and that have made a tremendous difference in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THANK YOU MOM!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We thank the good Lord above for our mothers! We hope that they feel special and loved this day and every day.
