14 May 2017 - ENCS

Pastor Josh gave us a special sermon this Mother’s Day
Linking our worth to God’s worth is really the only way
Single moments and choices often can define our lives
Every interaction with another is what actually survives
Raising children involves teaching them good from evil
The aim of which is to equip them for times of upheaval

Pastor Josh then spoke based on Exodus chapter one
Focusing on things various women for Moses had done
The midwives feared God and thus disobeyed the king
So they did not murder any of the Jewish male offspring
Moses’ mother hid him for three months, per Exodus two
Then she put him in a floating basket and bid him adieu
His sister stood at a distance, seeing what would happen
Pharaoh’s daughter found baby Moses and took him in
To find a suitable nurse, the sister did then cleverly offer
Moses’ mother was the Hebrew woman she did proffer
His mother got paid for taking care of Moses for years
Everything worked out well, thus avoiding many tears
And while behind everything, God’s plans clearly were
Without those women, the exodus could not occur

Per First Timothy one, Timothy go his sincere faith
From his grandmother and mother, Paul did sayeth
This is a reminder that God blesses generationally
And that being a mother carries great responsibility

Mothers pray, meditate, proclaim, and fellowship
For their children at home or when on a long trip
We can all learn from this and show others love
Reflecting what God pours on us from up above
"Happy Mother’s Day” is more than just a phrase
It is an unending role that deserves highest praise
