When I think of my mom here are some of the words and thots that come to mind .....
- Industrious, frugal and a wonderful cook.
- Responsible, capable and a great housekeeper!
- Lots of laughter, teasing and fun
- Singing, music and hospitable
- Love for travel, love for God, love for truth.
- Faithful to God, faithful to her husband and to her children
- Intercessor, encourager, friendly.
i LOVE YOU MOM! HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!  |
Sis. Felicity,
Your Mom looks like someone I have seen in my past. She is lovely.
You are no doubt a reflection of your dear Mother. Many
times we become much like those we followed. If God did not allow those
we are following to go out of sight, we would never learn to follow HIM
for ourselves. He wants us to learn to follow Him because when we get
to where He is, they will already have been there. Would we lean on
Jesus if could lean on our parents and grandparents and others? God
sometimes removes our leaning post so we can stand alone with Him.
After parents are gone, He will have someone for us to "lean on" until
we can stand alone with Him (inside). Sometimes He just moves us away
so we can learn, and lets us keep our loved ones longer.
May all who come behind us find us faithful!
Happy Mother's Day, Sister Felicity.
