Happy Mother’s Day!
While some are expecting little footsteps soon,
Others can hear them in every room,
Some might only remember their own little feet,
Their children are grown and grandchildren, they meet.
All do proudly bear the name,
As God has blessed them all the same,
Entrusted them with those so dear,
Our own Jesus wants them near.
The name that when it’s often called,
It stops our feet; our life does stall,
That we may run to help them out,
To conquer obstacles when they doubt.
To cuddle them when they have fears,
To bandage, clean, and wipe away tears,
To show them God in our actions here,
That they may see, and not just hear.
God, thank you for trusting us with our girls and boys,
They give us challenges and many joys.
A higher honor, there is no other,
Than Your trust and Your blessing when You made us, “Mother”.
