Galatians 5:22-23

May. 6, 2008 - Happy Mother's Day :)

Something to think about for people young and old alike...


When you were 8 years old, your mom handed you an ice cream.
You thanked her by dripping it all over your lap.



When you were 9 years old, she paid for piano lessons.
You thanked her by never even bothering to practice.





When you were 10 years old she drove you all day, from soccer to one birthday party after another.

You thanked her by jumping out of the car and never looking back.



When you were 11 years old, she took you and your friends to the movies.
You thanked her by asking to sit in a different row.



When you were 12 years old, she warned you not to watch certain TV shows.
You thanked her by waiting until she left the house.



When you were 13, she suggested a haircut that was becoming.
You thanked her by telling her she had no taste.



When you were 14, she paid for a month away at summer camp.
You thanked her by "forgetting" to write a single letter.



When you were 15, she came home from work, looking for a hug.
You thanked her by having your bedroom door locked.



When you were 16, she taught you how to drive her car.
You thanked her by taking it every chance you could.



When you were 17, she was expecting an important call.
You thanked her by being on the phone all night.



When you were 18, she cried at your high school graduation.
You thanked her by staying out with your friends until dawn.



When you were 19, she paid for your college tuition, drove you to campus, and carried your bags.
You thanked her by purposely avoiding her calls when you were out with your friends after studies.



When you were 25, she helped to pay for your wedding, and she cried and told you how deeply she loved you.
You thanked her by moving half across the country and visiting her once every few years.



When you were 50, she fell ill and needed you to take care of her.
You thanked her by putting her in a nursing home when you were still able to take care of her.


And then, one day, she quietly died. And everything you never did came crashing down like thunder on YOUR HEART.




Ephesians 6:2:
(2)Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;

 
 


Let us take the time to thank God for our mothers! my mommy

 Without them, we wouldn't be here!

About Me

"One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure." -- William Feather This quote best describes the attitude I want to have about life. Instead of looking at life as a poor and miserable journey, I want to look at it with as much optimism as I can! I want to embrace each God-given day with a smile and enjoy the expeditions that life brings. Of course, I face many perils in life but I believe that, with God's help and my optimism, I can rise above my struggles and live a happy life. Join with me as I share with you stories of "My Life."
