Tribute to Mothers

Tribute to Mothers

Mothers deserve praise! What makes mothers so special? What would you say in your tribute to mothers? According to our Mother’s Day poetry contest winners, mothers are truly gifts from God. Thanks to all of you who entered! As I promised, here are the three winners of our poetry contest. Enjoy each tribute to mothers.

When the weight of the world

is on my shoulders,

I turn to my right

and realize I’m not alone,

because she’s helping me carry it.

The stars are written in her eyes,

sunlight in her smile,

and I know for sure,

when this barren earth falls behind me,

she’ll be an angel waiting for me at heaven’s gate.

-Caroline Aung

****

A mother’s love

is much like an arrow

and her precious child

is the bulls-eye.

Though she may not

be the best archer,

possess the steadiest hands,

or have precise aim,

she is persistent.

Even when the target is far off

or seems impossible to reach,

yes, she will persist.

– Kathy Jeffords

 ****

 My mom has her tasks and her faults, but she is the best mom I’ve ever known…

Good Lord knows I’ve tried her patience, more than once or twice…

her enduring love shines forth every day, in little things and big, in her own way…

she’ll never preach a sermon, and

usually not dust a pew at church…

but her and God are well known to each other, they sit at each other’s perch…

she shares His love with family and friends, and often helps people on the mends…

she’s the best Mom I’ve ever known!

-Dani S. Lacy

Biblical Praise for Mothers

Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised. Reward her for all she has done. Let her deeds publicly declare her praise (Proverbs 31:30, 31, NLT).
