That's not just any lady....... It's Supermom!!!!!!

In honor of Mother's Day, here is a tribute to all of us mothers everywhere:

You remember the intro to the comicstrip "Superman"--- Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.......

Well, to mom's everywhere:

Faster than a speeding mini-van, more powerful than a dose of Prozac, able to leap the soccer field in a single bound, known as the Woman of Strength..... It's SUPERMOM.

What other creature on earth can gently nurture little babies, wipe away tears, and kiss away boo-boos while being the pillar of strength for her family?  Simultaneously clean up vomit while cooking dinner, checking homework, and folding a pile of laundry without even breaking a sweat?  Drive down the road and swat at her misbehaving child, answer 1,001 questions, silence a ringing cellphone and without for a moment taking her eyes off the road?  What other creature can boldly and confidently say,  "I told you so" at least a million times a week? What other creature takes pride in the shine of clean toilet bowls and clean floors and perfectly baked cookies for the PTO?

No other creature but us MOM'S, that's who!

But above all else, Mothers can pray for their children like nobody else can.  They can fervently beg and plead with God to just give us the strength, the wisdom, and ability to just do this one thing right.  If we fail at all else in our lives, please, God, let us raise happy, healthy children who have their eyes set on things above.  Let us raise children who will be salt of the earth. We pray for our children to be a beacon of light for His glory in this ever darkening world of evil and faith that is continually being watered-down.  Let our children and their lives be used for God's glory while His hand of protection and safety go before them.  We beg and plead for our children to make wise choices, make the right friends, and despise sinful acts.  We beg and plead for future spouses of our children to be God-fearing, God-loving spouses who will treat our children the way husbands and wives should--- under the authority of God.  We even pray for our grandchildren in the distant, not-so-far-away future.  That as a mom, our legacy will last for generations.  We beg God that our entire family tree will all be together in Heaven bowing down to the loving Savior that showed so much mercy and grace.  If I can't get anything else right here in my time on earth, I just fervently pray that I can at least raise my children right.  Not what the world deems right.  But what my GOD says is right.  I pray that I can teach my children to give God all the glory and honor in every last thing they do for their entire lives.  If I never pray for any other thing in life, that would be my prayer.  God give me the wisdom to be the mom that YOU created me to be, to these priceless gifts you've loaned me for just a short time.  Let me just get this right.  Three little souls depend on it.   Amen.
