On this Mother’s Day, we thank the Lord for the gift of life though our mothers. When we see and hear of mothers who abort their children, we are saddened by this lack of respect for God’s precious gift of life. At the same time, we thank the Lord that He has given us life as our time of grace to seek and find Him as our Savior and Lord (Isaiah 55:6). We honor the Lord through our mothers and the love and care which they give to those whom the Lord has given to them. “May your father and mother be glad; may she who gave you birth rejoice!” – Proverbs 23:25
