Her children rise up, and call her blessed. Proverbs 31:28
This Sunday we celebrate Mother’s Day, a day we honor the persons or the memories of the persons who most represent the expression of love in our lives. There are many different channels in which this spirit of motherly love may flow into our lives. For many it will be our mothers, for some it will be their fathers, or perhaps an older sibling. That channel of love, and support and kindness may be a teacher or a circle of friends.
There is a mother spirit at the very heart of our universe. Even as we think of God we think in terms of Father -Mother God. This mother principle is that which nourishes, sustains, feeds, tends, and holds together. On this day, which we are dedicating to all mothers everywhere, let us remember that we are honoring the mother spirit that is such an important part of this world in which we live.
Each of us has within that Spirit of Mother Love. It is a tremendous power that only works when we allow it to flow in and through and as us. So on this Mother’s Day let us express our gratitude not only for the many channels in which this motherly love has flowed to us in our lives, let us also give thanks by expressing that Spirit of motherly love to all people.
Happy Mother’s Day!
Rev. Carol
