During this month as we celebrate Mother's Day, I
want to commend each one of you who faithfully do the most important job
anyone could ever do - wipe little noses (and bottoms), read to and
teach your children about Jesus, feed and bathe them, listen to and
answer all those amazing questions, wash never-ending piles of laundry,
and all those other "investments" you put into your precious children,
grandchildren, and great-grandchildren! Your investments will be
rewarded!
To those who have lost a precious mother, as I have, I pray your hearts will be wrapped in love by the Lord Jesus, as He brings you comfort.
And to those ladies who are praying for the Lord to bring them a husband, as well as those who have not been blessed with children, I pray He will fill those unmet desires of your hearts!

YOUR MOTHER IS ALWAYS WITH YOU
Author unknown - Thanks to Paula Archer in Nebraska for sending this beautiful poem!
This is so beautiful---whether your MOM is with you or not!!!
She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street,
she's the smell of certain foods you remember,
flowers you pick and perfume that she wore,
she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well,
she's your breath in the air on a cold winter's day.
She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep,
the colors of a rainbow, she is Christmas morning.
Your Mother lives inside your laughter.
And she's crystallized in every tear drop.

Your Mother lives inside your laughter.
And she's crystallized in every tear drop.
A mother shows every emotion....Happiness, sadness, fear, jealousy, love,
hate, anger, helplessness, excitement, joy, sorrow....and all the while,
hoping and praying you will only know the good feelings in life.
She's the place you came from, your first home,
and she's the map you follow with every step you take.
She's your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy,
but nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, not space....not even death!
Note from Lois: I'm looking forward to I Thessalonians 4:16-17 (KJV)
For
the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ
shall rise first: Then we who are alive and
remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the
Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

Here are some great songs for Mother's Day! Click on each title to hear a soundbyte of each song.
If I Could Give You
Note from Lois: The first song, Juggling Mom, is the reason I came to know and love Mary quite a few years ago, and it's been my great privilege to meet and learn from Mary since that time. She's a very talented musician, who writes the lyrics and music to her wonderful songs. You and your children are in for a special treat when you watch Mary's TV show each Saturday at 11:30 a.m. Eastern time on TBN (and corresponding times across the country). "Mary Rice Hopkins and Puppets with a Heart" is the name of her show. Fascinating and adorable puppets, a great lesson and wonderful music - all put together in a theme! I set our DVR to tape her show automatically each week!
