This is how I feel sometimes. I’m tired, I need rest. I want some peace please is what I say sometimes. Is that sound familiar to you? As a mother you probably know that children are demanding. They are loud and messy. They scattered toys everywhere and it makes my head spin you know! I’m sure that’s not new to you. When they are young as babies they need diaper change, changing clothes, baths, naps and most especially, Mommy. As they get older it’s time to start a new chapter in their lives and so they go to school. Now they need help with their homework, rides everywhere they want to go, money, a bit less Mom. Children are precious! They are a bunch of fun and endless work I tell you. As you know they get bigger but no matter how big they get, they are always our babies. Through our children, we are blessed. Children a reward from Him! (Psalm 127:3-5). If you have children then you are blessed. I just have to remember that when my children call me” Mommy…I need you”
Lord God I thank you for the opportunity to be a mother of my 2 children. Thank you for my precious daughter Abigail and my baby son Noah. I sometimes get frustrated and forget they are gift from you. Please help me to remember that they are a blessing and my life would be empty, unmeaningful and incomplete without them. Thank you for blessing me with such an adorable and irreplaceable gift.
Happy Mother’s Day everyone and Bless you!
3 Sons are a heritage from the LORD,
children a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one’s youth.
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
Psalm 127:3-5 (NIV)

They are such a beautiful gift
me and my husband has been praying for “our gift” for four years now

What an honor and privilige it is to be a mother. My daughters are now in their 20s and becoming more independent. But I am still their mother, I am there to pray for them; listen to them and help them search for their own solutions to their problems. I am there to love them unconditionally, even when they make mistakes. There is no other job more worthy than being a mother. For those who do not have children, I know God is calling them to be a mentor, to make a difference in someone’s life. Mothering can take many different forms. Sometimes it is just being a really good friend. Thanks for this thought provoking post, and wonderful scripture. HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!!!
P.S. Have you heard of MOPS?- Mother’s of Preschoolers. When my children were little, this group was a blessing to me. Christian women get together for fellowship while their children are provided free babysitting service. Check it out in your community. It is a wonderful organization (non-denominational). Provides weary moms with a break.
My children are all grown and we have over a bakers dozen of granchildren…I watch my kids doing just what your wrote about and remember those days well! Thank you for sharing this with us….God bless and Happy Mother’s Day!!

Thank you for sharing this thoughtful post. My son and daughter have brought me joy for over 40 years. Our daughter will be 50 in October. I wouldn’t take anything for their growing up years and now having them as friends as adults. I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day.
