The weekend message for the beloved Children of God is - Celebrating!

Happy Mother's Day weekend to all the beloved Mother's!
The weekend message for the beloved Children of God is - Celebrating!
 
Read Luke 6:46, And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?  We celebrate the beloved mother's today,my mother, your mother, the god-mother's, the grandmother's, the great- grandmother's, the great-great grandmother's, the step mother's, the spiritual mother's, the single mother's,and the women that have become mother's for others. Let us look at the history of Mother's Day :in the 17th Century, a clerical decree in England broadened the celebration from one focused on the church and the Virgin Mary the Mother of Christ, to include real Mothers, referring to the occasion as Mothering Day. Mothering Day became an especially compassionate holiday toward the working classes of England. Early Christians celebrated a Mother's Day of sorts during the festival on the fourth Sunday of Lent in honor of the Virgin Mary, Mother of Christ. In England the holiday was expanded to include all mothers.During this Lenten Sunday, servants and trade workers were allowed to travel back to their towns of origin to visit their families.Today Mother's Day is celebrated in several countries including US, UK, India, Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, Mexico, Canada, China, Japan and Belgium. People take the day as an opportunity to pay tribute to their mothers and thank them for all their love and support. The day has become hugely popular and in several countries phone lines are very busy doing this time. There is also a tradition of giving flowers, taking your mother out for lunch or dinner, giving cards and other gifts to mothers on Mother's Day. You have a choice to make this weekend, let us be obedience to God. The word of God tells us, If you love me you will do has I tell you, read John 14:15,If ye love me, keep my commandments. In honor of our Mother's today, the one who birthed us,and helped to raised us and tried to tell us that everything would be okay, we celebrate you today and forevermore. God has commanded us to celebrate our father's and mother's, read Deuteronomy 5:16, Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.This verse is about teaching children to appreciate and learn a valuable lesson about honoring the people they should love at all times. Sometimes it's not just about telling mom that you Love her, but it is about showing her. Many people say, “I love you,” but their actions prove otherwise. Love means putting other people first, love always gives the other person the benefit of the doubt and always hope for the best for others. I am a person that lives by showing others how much I love them. Understand this, Love is an action word, I believe that show is better then tell, when we are speaking about Love. The bible tells us to be doers of the word, and not just hearers of the word. The bible tells us to lay aside every weight that stops us from loving others, let us throw off whatever weighs us down that we can not show love for others. Read James 1:21-24,Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. Let us look at the godly mother,the godly mother will not be so much concerned with how much money their children make when they become adults, but how faithful they will be to the Lord and what service they will be to Him. A mother holds a special place in the hearts of all mankind, for without her none of us could be here in physical form and as an expression of the will of God to have humans made in his own image. This is the hand of God, He chose our Mother's, let us praise His Holy Name for what He has done. Let us pray, Heavenly Father thank you Lord for choosing my mother. Let us never forget to honor our Mother's for all the wisdom, the kindness and the strength from within them. And never ever forget the late nights when we were ill she care for us. All of the Sacrifices she made on our behalf. Honoring our parents is a command, which we dare not ignore,this is one of the highest callings and the greatest tasks we face in our life.We thank you Lord for what you have done, you chose my mother and father. Let us pray for our mother's that are sick and in the hospitals also, Im asking for healing in the Name of Jesus.Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
