Mothers' Day 2021
Greetings on this Mother's Day. Someone has made a list of nine things a Mother would never say. See if your Mom would ever say these things:
1. "How on earth can you see the TV sitting so far back?" Anybody?
2. "Yeah, I used to skip school a lot, too."
2. "Yeah, I used to skip school a lot, too."

# 1: Mother’s sacrificial love: On Sunday, August 16, 1987, Northwest Airlines flight 225 crashed just after taking off from the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport. One hundred fifty-five people were killed. One survived with injuries: a 4-year-old from Tempe, Arizona, named Cecelia. News accounts say when rescuers found Cecelia they did not believe she had been on the plane. Investigators first assumed Cecelia had been a passenger in one of the cars on the highway onto which the airliner crashed. But when the passenger register for the flight was checked, there was Cecelia's name. "Cecelia survived because, as the plane was falling, Cecelia's mother, Paula Chican, unbuckled her own seat belt, got down on her knees in front of her daughter, wrapped her arms and body around Cecelia, and then would not let her go." She was a real mother. That sounds to me like a metaphor of the love of God.
Mothers’ Day
I must candidly confess that when I was in seminary the 16th chapter of Paul's letter to the Romans didn't do much for me.
