I attended a ‘celebration of life’ (funeral) a few weeks ago for a wonderful woman. As the pastor and children talked about their mother, it was apparent that she had left an incredible legacy. Our pastor talked about how when an artists or writer dies, they often talk about his greatest work or masterpiece. And in this woman’s case, her greatest work was her family. That statement has really stuck with me.
Three generations of my family are getting together for Mother’s Day. Three generations of Christ followers. Three generations of people changing their world. How powerful to think of all the lives that have or will be touched by our family.
A mother’s masterpiece is her family. Leaving a legacy. Changing the world. Thanks to tons of time, work, sacrifice, care, and love by mothers. I humbly look forward to when God gives me the opportunity to take this role.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY, MOMS!!!!
Sounds like someone has the baby bug.
