Mother's Day

With Mothers Day just passed I thought this would be good place to thank my parents, but my mum in particular, for teaching me the most important thing in life. That is that Christ has taken care of my single greatest need by dying on the Cross for my sins, and has given purpose to my life, that is what truly matters. My mom is old now and her health is not that good but she knows she is going to be with the Lord, so when she talks about it, she does so with a smile on her face and great anticipation. She is a perfect example of joy in the midst of suffering and trusts God completely. He is her solid rock that she stands on in trying times and because of that she has a steady faith that does not waver with the changing circumstances.
She has faithfully loved her husband and three children. She has faithfully served us. She has laid down her life for us and made us her priority. She has set an amazing example for my sisters and myself to follow. Mom, I love you so much. Thank you for the godly woman you are. I will deeply miss you when you go home to be with the Lord, but praise Him that we never have to say goodbye.
