An Ode to Moms (On Mother’s Day)

 

We at TwentySixEight know how much the moms in our community do.

 

You are the nurturers

And the bearers of life.

You make disciples

And endless amounts of cookies.

You are gospel sharers,

Storytellers,

And naptime warriors.

You know how to have fun

And how to clean it all up when the time comes.

You are the giver of great hugs

And the first call with big news.

You are mom.

And we see you.

 

We see the tired moms that are reaching for yet another cup of coffee,

And the homeschooling moms who are patiently going over the lesson one more time.

We see the moms who are always cheering, always encouraging,

And the working moms trying to juggle provision and responsibilities.

We see the moms that are missing their children today,

And the moms who will spend all day with them.

We see you.

You are an irreplaceable part of our community.

 

So for everything you do…

Thank you.

You are cherished.

 

Proverbs 31:25-29:

Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.
She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed.”

 

May The Lord continue to shine His face upon you on this special day.
