If you’re reading this, whoever you are, I’m praying for you.
For the moms, I’m praying for you as a mother. For the daughters, I’m praying for your mom and your relationship with her. For the men, as sons, fathers and husbands, I’m praying for the women in your life. For your wife, the mother of your children. For your mothers and your mother-in-laws.
For your grandmothers, aunts, sisters and teachers.
For your neighbors, friends and amazing leaders.
For those who have lost their moms and moms who have lost children. For the dog/cat/pet moms, for the foster moms and for those who desperately want to be moms and are still tirelessly trying.
Here’s to the moms who do it all behind the scenes, the things that don’t make our highlight reels or Instagram feeds. The meals you make, the prayers you’ve prayed and the lives you’ve shaped.
Motherhood is a ministry.
Let us never take for granted, or miss an opportunity to honor, the amazing, strong, selfless, resilient, irreplaceable and incomparable women God has graciously given to us as gifts in our lives.
Moms. There really is nothing like them. God made them on purpose, with purpose, and I’m so glad He did.
“Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.”
Proverbs 31:30
Happy Mother’s Day.
