Devotionals
When a mother said, "Amen" after grace one night, one of her
children asked what "amen" meant. Before she or her husband
could answer, their five-year-old responded, "It means "send."
This Sunday is a day set aside to honor Mothers -- what would we
do without them? We wouldn't be here -- that's what. My
Mother was only 50 when she died, but to this day I have the
fondest memories of her sweet and gentle spirit.
Many of you are fortunate to still have your Mother with you.
Others of us have to rely on memories on this special Sunday and
every day. Either way we need to be grateful for the one who
went through pain to introduce us to this exciting world.
We also need to renew our gratitude for the one who went
through indescribeable pain to bring us our second birth. There is
no birth of any kind without pain -- even a chicken probably says
ouch when it lays an egg -- but His pain is the most anyone ever
endured in order to introduce us to our new father, God.
I know
you are grateful, but have you told Him lately?
This verse is familiar, but read it again, thoughtfully -- Heb. 12:2,
"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for
the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the
shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."
He did that for you, yes you. It's time to thank Him.
