Mother’s May Day!

A Happy Mother’s Day Poem

Mother’s day is the second Sunday in May.

Mother’s day is to honor our moms and to say,

I love you, and in my heart you will stay.

 

Mother’s day comes but once a year.

A mother’s day never ends and its clear,

That on this day, I wish to bring you good cheer.

 

Mother’s day comes when flowers bloom.

Her child grows up and always too soon,

To catch her breath as we reach for the moon.

 

Mother’s day should not be just one Sunday in May.

Mothers should be honored day after day.

My mother today is your day, now rest, go, and play.

What More Do We Need?

I heard a person once answer a question about what he needed.  He said, “I’d like a new car and a cottage down by the ocean.”  I heard another person say, “Yea, I’d like to have a million dollars and just live off the interest.”  And another answered the same question with, ”I’d like a whole new wardrobe, and a new entertainment system.”  But what those people didn’t answer was the question put before them.  What would you like that you need?  Jesus said in Matthew 6:25 "For this reason I say to you, do not be anxious for your life, {as to} what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, {as to} what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body than clothing?”  God has given us all things that we have that is good and it is our responsibility as stewards to utilize what He has given us wisely according to His will.  But if we are in need, then we are to go to the Father in prayer.  Jesus said in Matthew 7:7 "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you.”

Having nice things is ok, but they aren’t always what we need.  Sometimes God blesses us with nice things when we prove that we can handle what He has given us.  But we have to take care of what we have or we lose it and that includes our eternal Spirit.  Look at it this way, we have God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit, the kingdom of Heaven and life eternal through our Lord Jesus.  What more do we need?
