Mother's Day

Today is the day we celebrate mothers.  I have been blessed with a mom was loves me.  God has also richly blessed me with adopted mothers that have taken me in, lent a listening ear and given advice when my own mother was far away.  I tend to adopt mothers wherever I go - which to me is a reflection of what I good mother I was given.  Adopted mothers are older women who have counseled me through various stages of life.  Most of them are in my life for a short time before the tide changes and I moved to some place new.  So to my mother and all of my adopted mothers who span the globe from Honduras, Mexico, Kansas, Illinois, Pennsylvania and beyond, thank you.  Thanks for lending a listening ear.  And most importantly, thanks for pointing me back to Jesus for all of life's true answers.
