Mother, you have the greatest blessing from God, next to your salvation, in your children. Today, even if they have disappointed you or seem to be a burden, remember that God gave them to you to bring them up to serve Him.
Sometimes it is hard and feels like an impossible job, but God is with you to give you wisdom, grace and love for them.
So today, give them your time, kind words and a special hug. You have the greatest gift in them.
A mother has the most influence on a child’s life. What she says and does teaches her children on how they should speak and act.
As Christian moms we should teach our children the Word of God from the beginning of their lives. We start by singing songs about Jesus. Read them stories from the Bible. Most of all pray with them and for them.
Our words are so important!! Speak softly and kindly. Listen to them. Be careful to encourage and not set a bad example by harsh or unkind words.
Being a mother is the most important job in the world. We never know what our children will become. We may be training that child to be great for God. A little girl who could influence a country like Esther, or a little boy a great leader like Moses.
There is nothing so precious as a photo of a Mother with her child.
Mother’s Day is coming on Sunday in the USA, But it is a good thing to honor your Mother wherever you live, not just on a special day but everyday.
Ephesians 6:2&3
Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
Pray your Pastor will preach the truth with power of the Holy Spirit.
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”
Hebrews 4:12, KJV
What we say can change a persons life. Our words can be kind and gentle, or they can be harsh and cruel. Be careful what we say and how we say it.
James 3:5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
There is a children’s song “This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine.”
As Christians we need to let our light shine by telling others, especially people who do not know Jesus, how they can be saved by believing in His death, burial and resurrection.
When we hide our light under a bushel, we are not doing what the Lord ask us to do in His word.
Let your light shine today!
Matthew 5:16 – Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
The Bible tells us a lot about how and when we should speak.
Proverbs 21 gives great advice, we will stay out of trouble if we keep our mouth shut. Angry? Sop! Say nothing. Wait and allow time to cool off before we address the subject.
Ephesians 4:29 – Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
James 1:26 – If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
1 Peter 3:10 – For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
These are great verses, and there are many more, that teach us to be careful how and when to speak. God will bless us abundantly if we can ask Him to help us to speak kind, encouraging words.
Jesus is dead. The tomb is sealed. The disciples are in shock and grief. Is there no hope?
The days between the crucifixion and resurrection must have been really hard for the followers of Jesus. The One they had put their trust in, the One who was going to be King. Confused, sorrowful and disappointed they probably did nothing. Some waited together and others waited alone. People react differently when someone they love dies.
Today there are many people who have the same reaction to Jesus. Some doubt. Some do not believe in Him. Others reject Him. They do not realize what He can do for them.
Today is the day before Resurrection Sunday. Are you like these people or are you excited about tomorrow? The tomb did not stay sealed. The stone rolled away and JESUS arose. Let us celebrate the glorious resurrection not only tomorrow but everyday. JESUS lives…
Mark 16:6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
It is so easy to get distracted by things that are beyond our control. If our attention is on the news, we can become fearful.
Everywhere we look there is something that can cause us to take our eyes off Jesus and live in fear and uncertainty, but we have promises in God’s Word that He is with us, He has everything in control and He is with us through any situation.
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10
Today is what we call Palm Sunday. It is the day that the Bible tells us Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a small donkey.
People shouted and laid palm branches in His path. They shouted and honored Him. Hosanna!
Then a few days later the same crowd shouted, Crucially Him!
What do we do with Jesus? Are we worshiping Him or do we turn our backs on Him and in our heart are like that crowd.
On this Palm Sunday, if you have not made Jesus you Lord and King, ask Him to forgive your sin and accept Him as your Savior.
