Mother’s Day Wisdom

When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness. She carefully watches everything in her household and suffers nothing from laziness. Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her: "There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!" Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the LORD will be greatly praised. Reward her for all she has done. Let her deeds publicly declare her praise. Proverbs 31:26-31

Great tribute to the Mother of Proverbs. Happy Mother’s Day—to all you Mammas. This is the woman of the Bible to emulate—to be like. Set her attributes as your goals. Kind, good teacher, leader, hard worker, admirable, high integrity, capable, respects God, and worthy of praise and honor. Making good choices is the way to attain those goals. Solomon gives some good advice: Wise choices will watch over you. Understanding will keep you safe. Proverbs 2:11. Joshua knew that the men…and women…needed to make a choice for their families. But if you refuse to serve the LORD, then choose today whom you will serve. Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates? Or will it be the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live? But as for me and my family, we will serve the LORD." Joshua 24:15. Ladies…who will you choose to serve today? Is it your goal to serve the Lord?

Prayer ~ Dear Lord, I choose to serve, honor and respect You. Guide me and give me wisdom as I serve You by serving my family—as I honor You by treating them with love and respect. You are worthy of my praise.

Happy Mother’s Day.
