Writing a note to your mother

What are you thinking about doing for Mother’s Day? It’s today!

I’ve been thinking. Most moms have a Proverbs 31 desire. God has wired moms that way. That means your mom! She wants to know that the following Proverbs 31 passage is true in her life: “Her children rise up and bless her; Her husband also, and he praises her, saying: ‘Many daughters have done nobly, But you excel them all’” (NASB). 

So, if you are fortunate enough to still have your mom, I want to encourage you to honor your mom by writing a tribute to honor to her. Rise up! After all, this is the first commandment that ends in a blessing (Ephesians 6:2). 

Basically, in 15-20 minutes, you can write a tribute to your mom that will last a lifetime and will have eternal impact in and through your life.

Here are some questions to get you started:

What is one thing you love about mom?
What is a favorite memory of mom?
What’s a funny story about something you did with mom?
What have you learned from mom (about behavior, manners, the Bible, or life in general)?
Write a paragraph telling her thanks and what you appreciate specifically about her.

Rise up. Bless her. You'll be glad you did.
