A special day to recall to one’s mind the wonderful gift that may be given in the shape of a mother. For some this is a grand day of family gatherings and church worship. A day of flowers and gifts, our church gives every mother a single rose on this day. Whether or not your church has this tradition or not the most important thing is that those who honor their father and Mother are being obedient to God’s command. Some may not like the idea of being a mother, as in the case, I asked a lady whether she was a mother and she hesitated to tell me and then she smiled and laughed a little and said, “yes” and I gave her a rose. We thank God especially for mother’s teaching their children, God’s admonition, to love God and their neighbor as themselves. We thank grandmother’s who do the same.
