Easy {or NOT} Mother's Day gifts

So ~ Mother's Day has come and gone for another year.

Did you get your Mom anything? Do anything special for her?

Here's some Mother's Day gifts that will keep on giving the whole year through!

Honor“Honor your mother and father” is the first “horizontal” commandment given in the Ten Commandments. It’s important. There is a reason why you have the mom that you have. God chose the exact time and place where you would live and the exact family that you would be born into (Acts 17:26). By respecting and honoring the woman God chose to be your mother, you are respecting His decision to put her there.

Forgiveness
Even the best mom still needs your forgiveness. Forgiveness for not being perfect. For not being there. For being there too much. For whatever scars she’s left on your life. Let’s face it, some moms have done some pretty rotten things. But God commands forgiveness in the Bible, and it’s not something we’re to withhold just because the person who needs it is our mother.

Thanks
Chances are, your mother has invested many, many hours in you over the course of your lifetime. She deserves your thanks. Thanks for all of the many things she’s done for you. For the loads of laundry she folded. For the meals she cooked. For putting up with you. For keeping you close. For letting you go. For any and everything she’s ever done for you. Do you thank her? Do you appreciate her? It’s never too late to tell her how much she means to you!

an inside out view

Spring is a time of new things ... grass, trees, flowers, lambs

God wants to do that in us too!

It's not our outward appearance He wants to change though ...

What's God seeing in your heart today?

Are you letting Him change you from the inside out?

Are you giving Him your all?

The Clock

Did you remember?

Missing your hour of sleep?

Jesus disciples found themselves lacking sleep too!

Here's the setting in Matthew 26 ....

³⁶ Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” ³⁷ He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. ³⁸Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.” ³⁹ Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.” ⁴⁰ Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “ Couldn't you men keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. ⁴¹ “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” ⁴² He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.” ⁴³ When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. ⁴⁴So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time, saying the same thing. ⁴⁵ Then he returned to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners. ⁴⁶ Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”
