Happy Mother’s Day!

To all beloved mothers in our lives – biological, adoptive and spiritual, Happy Mother’s Day! You are well described in Proverbs 31:28-30 (NIV):
28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
We thank God for your unconditional love in our lives.

Meeting Online to Encourage
“24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” ~ Hebrews 10:24-25, NIV
When social distancing is the societal norm, keeping in contact through other means and meeting each other online is much needed to encourage each other and spur another on to love and do good.
Safe in the Potter’s Hands
“Yet still, Yahweh, you are our Father.
We are like clay and you are our Potter.
Each one of us is the creative, artistic work of your hands.”
~ Isaiah 64:8 (TPT)
In such a time and at any time, we are safe and secure in the Potter’s hands. His loving hands seek to shape our hearts to reflect that of Christ especially when we face difficulties and challenges.
Rejoice At All Times
“16Always be joyful 17and never stop praying. 18Whatever happens, keep thanking God because of Jesus Christ. This is what God wants you to do.“ ~ 1 Thessalonian 5:16-18 (CEV)
We are exhorted to give thanks in all circumstances because we worship and serve the sovereign LORD of “incidents,” “accidents,” and “circumstances,” who providentially watch over our lives. We can thus be joyful and thankful no matter what happens! Shalom.
Celebrate Resurrection!
He [the angel] said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.” (Mark 16:6, NIV)
“And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.” (1 Corinthians 6:14, ESV)
“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9, ESV)
The tomb is empty!
Our Savior has conquered death.
Blessed Resurrection Sunday!
HALLELUJAH!
