As we get closer to Mother’s Day, I want to share a quote by Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of the United States:

“I remember my mother’s prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.”

I like that 🙂 

Obviously, it’s not meant literally but you get the point he was trying to make. 

I realize not every person has a great relationship with his or her mother. If you and your Mom get along, I hope God will remind you of some of the best moments you shared. If things are a bit tough right now, or peace between you seems impossible, I’d love to pray with you. Feel free to reply to this email.

One of the most important lessons my mother taught me was to learn the importance of two simple phrases: “Thank you” and “I’m sorry”. 

It’s so interesting how far those two phrases go in any culture – as I’ve been serving here in the ministry I’m sometimes surprised at how often I use those two phrases. 

Thanks be to moms!

Have a blessed Mother’s Day, and if there’s anything I can come alongside in prayer with you, please comment below!
