We should all make it a habit to tell and show our moms how much we love them every day, but today is a special day to honor them. Here are a few things you definitely should do for mom today that won't cost you any money; just time and effort.- Give her a BIG hug, and since we're on Long Island, a kiss on the cheek as well.
- Say those words ... you know the ones ... I ... Love ... You! During your teen years conflict with parents is common, but at the end of the day your mom loves you and you love her. Don't assume she knows it. Tell her.
- Write her a letter or give her a hand-made card. I know you can buy one, but the effort of actually making a card and writing to her from the heart means so much and will bless her.
- Pray for her. Thank the Lord for allowing you to have her as your mom. Ask the Lord to continue to draw your mom to Himself and that she would be the woman of God that He wants her to be. Ask Him to give her the strength to be the best mom that she can be (not the busiest; the best) and that He will give her the rest she needs.
- Tell her five things that you appreciate and admire about her in front of the rest of the family.
Before signing off, I am just reminded by the Lord that some of you have lost your moms this year or in recent years, and contrary to being a joyous day, for you this day is a painful one. We want you to know that we love you and are standing with you as Christ's tangible expression of love. If this pertains to you, let me encourage you to journal about your mom. Reminisce about the times you enjoyed with your mom while she was present with you, and honor your mom perhaps by sharing your memories with your family and/or friends. May God continue to love on you, and heal you as you walk with Him through the valley of the shadow of death. May the God of all Comfort love you in a special way today!
We Love You!
