Mom...
There is probably not a sweeter name this side of heaven than Mom. She means more than she probably ever realizes, and gives so unselfishly of herself to serve those she loves. When I think of the type of love that we are to have as Christians, that agape, self sacrificing type of love...Mom is my earthly role model. There can never be enough thanks or accolades given for Mom. She really is my hero and the reason that I turned out to love the Lord and want to do right with my life. This was originally written for her birthday a few years ago, but with Mother's Day coming up, it seem appropriate. I will be forever grateful for ...
Mom
What makes a
mom so special
What’s so
important about her task
Just listen to
her children
And the
questions that they ask
Like why is
the sky blue
What makes the
grass turn green
How do
lightning bugs do that
When their
tail lights can be seen
What makes the
stars so shiny
And does God
really live above
But the one
thing that you rarely hear
Is “Mommy what
is love”
For that
question can be answered
Just by living
in her care
The tenderness
a mother shows
Is in all the
world most rare
For she gives
without reservation
Of her energy
and time
From kissing
every boo boo
To reciting
each nursery rhyme
You can hear
it in her voice
You can see it
in her eyes
You can feel
it in the pride she shows
In her
children’s lives
It’s no wonder
she’s their hero
And they
understand once they’re grown
What makes a
mom so special
When
they have children of their own
Pr 31:28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praiseth her
(For my Mom on her 72nd
birthday)
