This Mother’s Day will be a special time of remembrance for me, especially, as this will be my first Mother’s Day without my sweet Mother. I guess this can be added to a long list of “firsts” concerning Mother; first Thanksgiving without her; first Christmas without her; first Easter without her; and now this. It will be my first Mother’s Day without her gracious presence.
But my memories are vivid of her and with great love and endearment. I thank GOD that in His graciousness He provided a mother for me who was not only godly but had a wonderful sense of humor and fine wisdom.
Yes, I will miss her terribly this Mother’s Day but I know that she and the LORD will be celebrating MOTHER’S DAY in Heaven with Mary, Jesus’ Mother and they will have a lot to talk about, I am sure.
I wonder if they will mention me?
May you be blessed, all, this Mother’s Day.
All of us that knew your Mother will remember her humor, wit and wisdom. Oh, yes, she will mention you and me too, hopefully, as she celebrates with the other saints and our Lord.
I am wondering if she wil tell the Holy Spirit to tell you to keep giving PG and Sherm potatoe bread for holidays. 🙂
I am sure your Mother would want you to have a happy day and celebrate Jesus as we do each Sunday and that would be her Joy!
Thank you for the kind words of encouragement and comfort concerning Mother’s Day without Sister Grandma. She was a surprising personality and I love her dearly for her godly counsel and gracious beauty and the wit and humor, too.
May God bless all of those whose Mothers have gone on before them to await us in joyful anticipation of that great family reunion in the sky….Jesus and His children coming through……” AMEN!
Your Mom was a rare jewel. She was so cute and truly loved the Lord so much. I love all the cute pictures you have of her and all the memories you share of her.
My Mom Ada, was a songwriter and poet and had her songs and poems published. She never got to travel extensively although she was able to travel in quite a number of states. After her death, her life as a Christian had touched me so much that I wanted to take her songs to the Nations. And, I did with an evangelist team and singers. I with my husband was able to preach and we were able to sing her song “I Want to Live In That City” taken from Revelation 21 in Crusades in India with 100’s accepting the Lord Jesus as their Savior.
She was also a business owner of a country store where she grew her own vegatables and flowers that she sold. She also sewed and made many other things to sell in her store. This was a great help to her family as she had 10 children. My father died at a very young age and left her with 5 children still not grown to raise/rear. She was so talented that we were forever blessed.
Her songs are sung in many church services today and her poems read and for that I am so grateful that her legacy forever lives and I have been able to share in this.
My prayers is that many more will come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior in the Nations and she will have lots of credit with Our Father.
Also, I pray for all her children and grandchildren and all generations that come that they will all be drawn into the presence of our Lord and Jesus will be their Lord and Savior. May all her family be gathered with her when each one is called by name to meet the Lord.
My mother was hardly ever seen without a crocket hook or a needle. She was quite a crafter. She would walk through a store, take one look at something, and go home and make the item. We began to think we could do the same thing, but quickly found unlike our mother we needed a pattern. She made all our clothes and decorated our home with all her crafts from wreaths, snowmen, fabric flowers, flyswatters, dolls and more dolls, tablecloths, quilts, and bedspreads. She sometimes made her own patterns out of newspaper print.
When we would go home for Christmas we would retreat to her favorite sewing spot in the house and we would make some kind of Christmas craft. She was a wonderful teacher. She also taught kids at her church crafts and did not give this up until shortly before her death. I remember her practicing her bible stories on us, using flannel graph pictures. If we understood the story she knew the kids would.
I remember a time when a child had a short period of time to live and my mother made the little girl a cabbage patch doll which was later buried with her because she loved it so much. My Mom later continue to make dolls for children in need.
She loved looking and admiring the handiwork of others as well and we spent many hours looking at beautiful handcrafted items. I’m sure she is in heaven admiring all the handiwork and somewhere up there she has found the sewing room because she is one among many who are masters of the needle. Happy Mothers Day to all of you.
Oh yes, I am also a benefactor of some of your Mother’s beautiful… lovely things. We even have some of them in our retreat home in NC as well as Va.
She was extremely gifted and kind to so many. Maybe that is why you can do a few great things as well. 🙂
Happy Mother’s Day Mom. We have surprises planned for you, but I can’t post them here, you’ll just have to wait and see.
Just to see your smiling face (words) posted here this am. Can’t wait to see all of you today. I always feel like a little girl at Christmas when my sons’ surprise me and take me out to dine!!!! I love it. Many thanks for all the appreciate you always show me.
I can remember my mom(Grace) setting on sundays turning the tv on and watching Mahalia Jackson singing those beautiful Hymns…..mom whould set us in front of the tv and we would listen until the last note was sung. I remember even hearing mom walking around humming those songs……I myself fell in love with two of them, learning only pieces of them as I was only 4 or 5 at the time…..one was His eye is on the Sparrow…and Blessed Assurance. Now I sing it in Church and I remember those tv sundays and mom and His Blessed Assurance…love dj
My mother was an outdoors-person who enjoyed everything from fishing, bird-watching and trail-hiking to gardening and mowing grass. She always liked to have cut flowers from her flower beds or from the wild in her favorite vases. (I must have gotten my love for landscaping, floral design and plants from her). She was a sportswoman who especially loved her dogs and horses. It is no wonder that her favorite hymn was “All Things Bright and Beautiful” by Cecil F. Alexander written in 1848.
I still love to hum this refrain and think of her.
“All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.”
I am grateful today for a mother who cared for me and taught me about God’s love. I hope this mother’s day is joyful for her and all the mother’s around the world!
