Monday morning in May

This Sunday is Mother’s day or as sometimes we look at Festival of the Christian home.  As I am planning the worship service, I thought I would share some illustrations as to Mothers.  Here is the first of the these.

Top Ten Quotes from Biblical Mothers:
10. Samson! Get your hand out of that lion. You don’t know where it’s been!
9. David! I told you not to play in the house with that sling! Go practice your harp. We pay good money for those lessons!
8. Abraham! Stop wandering around the countryside and get home for supper!
7. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego! Leave those clothes outside, you smell like a dirty ol’ furnace!
6. Cain! Get off your brother! You’re going to kill him someday!
5. Noah! No, you can’t keep them! I told you, don’t bring home any more strays!
4. Gideon! Have you been hiding in that wine press again? Look at your clothes!
3. James and John! No more burping contests at the dinner table, please. People are going to call you the sons of thunder!
2. Judas! Have you been in my purse again?
1. Jesus! What do you think, you were born in a barn?

I have come across a YouTube video that I will be using at the early service about mothers.  One thing that I believe is important that a sense of humor is important in what we do and at the same time to be sure to honor our mother’s and all women who were important in our own life.  God bless all women, mothers, grandmothers, aunts, teachers, medical professionals, pastors, counselors.
