Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Happy Mother’s Day to all freepers. I’m busy getting ready to serve Irish Tea tomorrow afternoon for Mom and the whole famdamily. All those little tea sandwiches are a pain to make but fun to eat along with my orange scones with clotted cream and raspberry preserves and of course potato soup and all the other little fruit and cookie goodies.

Seasons Of Life

May 12, 2013

When I was a pastor, I served many women who were moms. I called on them in the hospital and rejoiced with them for their precious babies who had come into the world. I counseled with anxious mothers and tried to assure them that God was watching over their rebellious teenagers. I stood with mothers at the bedside of injured or ill children and felt their pain. And I cried with them in their grief when their son or daughter died.

Mary, the mother of Jesus, also experienced times of joy and sorrow. What joy she must have felt when the Christ-child was born! (Luke 2:7). What excitement when the shepherds and later the wise men came to worship Him (vv.8-20; Matt. 2:1-12). What uneasiness when Simeon prophesied that a sword would pierce her soul (Luke 2:35). And what heart-wrenching grief as Mary watched her Son dying on the cross! (John 19:25-30). But her seasons of being a mother didn’t end with that terrible scene. She rejoiced that He rose from the grave.

Mothers, and all of us for that matter, experience many great joys and intense sorrows. But when we submit our lives to the Lord, every season of life can serve His eternal purposes.

Thank You, Lord, for motherhood
With all its vale of tears,
For happy moments never dimmed
Through all the many years. —Strecker
Being a mom is a sacred partnership with God.

Read: Luke 2:6-7,25-35

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven. —Ecclesiastes 3:1
Bible in a Year:
2 Kings 15-16; John 3:1-18

Happy Mothers Day to all you Mothers! LOL

My Mother and her Mother are tenders of the Rhubarb patch..
I dont know why, but they love that rhubarb patch.
Mom was just giving a big old sack of rhubarb to my brother
the other day.

I said Oh Boy oh boy! you remember when she used to make
that rhubarb hard sauce and would put that on vanilla
ice cream?

He said yeah.
That was awesome the way the simple syrup would glaze the
ice cream.

I said Brother, make her a rhubarb glazed cheese cake.
And so... It is done.

Happy Mothers day Mom ♥

That would be great but I can use a group hug because just over a month ago, I observed the nine-year anniversary of the passing of my mom from congestive heart failure. I really do miss her very much.

Happy Mother's Day To All You Moms!    God Bless You!

Here's an old "sad but hopeful" country song, for those of us whose Moms have been called to their eternal rest and reward by Our Lord.
