Our Mother Who Art in Heaven

Whoa Charles Whoa-
Have you lost your mind?
Don't you dare go perverting the scriptures.
I mean really- Get hold of yourself man!

You didn't really title this

"Our Mother Who art in Heaven" Did you?

Maybe it was just a typo.
 No typo-
But I may be guilty of a little attention grabbing-
You Know- Via the outrageous statement.

Now let me risk even a bit more-  

The Character and Glory of God 

Is expressed as fully in Good Motherhood 

As it is in Good Fatherhood.  

Mama carried me in her own body-
Mama suffered and sacrificed for me-
Mama nourished me-
Mama made a home for me-
Mama sang to me-
Mama held me close-
Mama spoke tender words to me-
Mama taught me-
Mama cared for my hurts-
Mama ......................

 Genesis 1:27 

So God created man in His Own Image- 

In the Image of God He created Him- 

Male and Female He Created Them.  

Children, honor your Mothers today-
Husbands, Honor the Mothers of your Children today-
Not just because it's nice-
 Not just because it's the right thing to do-
Not even just because she was a good Mother-
Let's honor these women today because in honoring them-
We honor the God whose image they bear.
In honoring these Women-
We honor those things about our God-
Those things He chose to show us about Himself-
Those things that could only be expressed-
Through the Love and Tenderness of a Woman.  

Father in Heaven, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit

 Give me eyes to see today- 

Give me eyes to see a bit more of Who You are- 

As I honor my Mother- 

For all the ways she poured Your Great Love into me. 

Amen
