She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
Proverbs 31:13-22

Mother's Day
Author: Carol Matthews

A Mother loves right from the start.
She holds her baby close to her heart.
The bond that grows will never falter.
Her love is so strong it will never alter.
A Mother gives never ending Love.
She never feels that she has given enough.
For you she will always do her best.
Constantly working, there's no time to rest.
A Mother is there when things go wrong.
A hug and a kiss to help us along.
Always there when we need her near.
Gently wipes our eyes when we shed a tear.
So on this day shower your Mother with Love.
Gifts and presents are nice but that is not enough.
Give your Mother a day to have some peace of mind.
Be gentle, be good, be helpful, be kind.
Happy Mothers Day.

Proverbs 31

 ¹The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.

 ²What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?

 ³Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.

 ⁴It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:

 ⁵Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.

 ⁶Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.

 ⁷Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.

 ⁸Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.

 ⁹Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.

 ¹⁰Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

 ¹¹The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.

 ¹²She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.

 ¹³She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.

 ¹⁴She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.

 ¹⁵She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.

 ¹⁶She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.

 ¹⁷She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.

 ¹⁸She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.

 ¹⁹She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.

 ²⁰She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.

 ²¹She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.

 ²²She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.

 ²³Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.

 ²⁴She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.

 ²⁵Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

 ²⁶She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

 ²⁷She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

 ²⁸Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

 ²⁹Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

 ³⁰Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.

 ³¹Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

A Look At How Christian Mothers Are And Have Always Been

My Mother, ever since I have know her, has always been a loving strong Christian woman. She attributes that to following the examples of Mothers in the Bible. Growing up, we don't always learn about the great women in the Word of God. Here are some of my personal favorites!

EVE: The Mother Of All Living - Genesis 3:20 - more specifically, of Cain, Abel, and Seth (and several unnamed others).

I guess if we are to commence in chronological order we would have to begin with Eve, the mother of us all. And she was the woman who made THE monumental, mind-blowing, affects-everybody forever mistake. So she probably deserves the bad rap she gets. But it wasn't like there were any other women around to make it instead of her, right? Maybe she was the first to partake of the fruit just because she was the only one who could remember where it was in the garden (women just know where stuff is).

You have to feel a little bit of sympathy for the girl who didn't have a mother to ask about how things were for her back in the day. When the kids had a temperature or were teething she just had to figure it out on her own, but, then again, nobody could look at her and tell her that she was doing it all wrong. And sure, she got us into epidurals, but she had the mother of all heartache, too. Her sons were involved in the first homicide (without Nintendo and violence on TV to blame it on). She was the first mom to have to bury her child.

Bathsheba was well-named as it was her "bath-ing" that attracted the attention of King David. Their illicit affair resulted in the birth of a son. David tried for some damage control by sending her husband out to war, back to the house hoping for a copulating cover-up, and then out to the frontlines to get killed. (And we think we have seriously evil plots in our current movies.) David got his wish -Bathsheba's husband was killed in battle, and David thought he had gotten away with it. Nathan confronted him and David repented bitterly. But we never really hear how it all affected Bathsheba.

Their sin is well documented and the effects to David's household long-lasting. However, a son was born from their union and Solomon turned out to be a peaceable ruler whose wisdom was legendary. Bathsheba's motherhood gives women hope that, regardless of the circumstances surrounding your pregnancy and the birth of your child, God can redeem any situation. You never know, you might just have the wisest person ever on the planet staring back at you from that high chair.

If there was ever a mom whose life would have made a great screenplay for a Lifetime for Women movie it would be Jochebed. You just have to give it up for her and the midwives who, in their act of civil disobedience, allowed Moses to be born. Those midwives, when asked by the pharaoh why they were not killing the boy babies as commanded, replied that the Hebrew women were "too vigorous" and popped those babies out before they could get there!

Thus baby Moses was born but had to be sent down the river (literally) with his sister serving as lookout, only to be pulled out of the water by the pharaoh's daughter, who secured the services of Moses' biological mom to nanny him. Talk about movie script material! Oh wait. They've already done that. Anyway, Moses' mom shows us that the determination and ingenuity of a desperate mother can result in surprising circumstances. Oh, the places you'll go!

Talk about your Personal EPT . . . I mean Mary's was early, EARLY! And accurate, too. Angelic visitation definitely qualifies as a sure thing. But the favored girl had to have some concerns because unwed pregnancy was a little different back then. You could get stoned for it. I'm sure she was very relieved to find out that the angel had given her beau, Joseph, the same message. And yes, she was going to give birth to the divine Gift of heaven, but, as any mother knows, all gifts come with some work attached. She still had to change the Baby Jesus' diapers, soothe him as he teethed, teach him to walk, and clean up his skinned knees. She had to cook the meals and wash his clothes and do all the things that moms do for their children. It's interesting the places we see Mary pop up in the gospels-for example, at the temple sending out an APB for her boy. (I believe I might have grounded Jesus if he told me that he was just doing his father's business, but no such reaction from Mary is recorded.)

Another of my favorite mother moments of Mary's was when she was at the wedding feast apparently exasperated with her thirty-year-old son for not doing that "thing" he could do with the water. When Jesus seems to refuse to come through the way she knows he can, she goes around him and tells the servants to get ready to do something for him. And Jesus does the miracle. I would have loved to have been there to see the looks pass between mother and son that night. And then we see Mary at the crucifixion. Disciples may scatter, followers may be in hiding, but a mother stays when the rest of the world walks away. In fact, Mary is a rich tapestry of real motherhood: a lot of excitement followed by years of work and moments of intense pain. But through it all, mothers are there.

These are some ideas you should do in addition to the poems

Are you still in search of the perfect gift to give your mother this Mother's Day? Then it is time to really buckle down and start thinking through the various options out there. Or maybe it is your wife you are looking for a gift for since the two of you just became brand new parents. Either way you are probably wanting to make sure that you are going with a gift that is incredibly thoughtful, meaningful, and one that will show her how much you really care for and love her.

There are so many different options out there but the goal is to make sure that the gift reflects the fact that Mother's Day is all about her. So a new television for the family room may not be ideal, unless she has been begging for one. You want the gift to be all about her such as mother's jewelry. Mother's personalized jewelry with the birthstones her children is always a big hit. If that is not something you are interested in there are always other routes to take.

Consider some of the following ideas and have a blast shopping:

·Baby and mommy classes (for the new mommies)
·Gift certificates for spa visits, tanning salons, or for fancy bath products
·Donating money to her favorite church ministry in her name
·A single rose that she can have during church service
·A bouquet of flowers

Just make sure that you are keeping your mother in mind when shopping for the perfect gifts and you will find it easy. You will know the right gift when you see it, as there is not a person out there that knows your mother better then you. So get started now so that you are ready in time for when Mother's Day rolls around.
