MOTHER'S DAY

I, Deborah, arose, a mother in Israel.

Judges 5:7

Deborah was a mother indeed to many in Israel that year,

A prophetess God used, to take away the people's fear.

She led her people well, and wrote poetry to celebrate it all,

Those who read will know, how she helped the great and small.

We honor mothers today, and all they mean to us,

Some are here, and others are gone, but for us they are a plus.

Pray for mothers today who may not know the Lord, 

Ask God to save their souls, and receive His great reward. (RP)

A Happy Mother's Day!  I have the privilege of preaching today on the subject matter of the above poem which I just wrote.  We look forward to a great time with family after church at a local restaurant and later here at home for dessert.  We pray this will be a wonderful day for you all.   Thanks for praying.
