Meditations by B. C. Money

We will be celebrating Mother’s Day Sunday, and we are wishing for every mother a most joyous happy day. We think Easter and Mother’s Day are two of the greatest days we celebrate, as they are so closely related. We know that mothers were the first at the tomb on Easter morning and first to see their risen Lord and carried the first message from him to his disciples. We realize that the father is the head of the home but when the child gets hurt or sick who is the one that binds up the wounds or soothes its fevered brow? It is the mother and our plea to all children that have living mothers is to love and be kind to them and listen to their counsel and you will never regret it. Yes, all honor to the good mothers of our country. Pastor Jim Murphy preached a good sermon Sunday at Union Grove Church. His subject was “Failure of the Church.” He did not say the church had failed but that it is slow to take firm stand on many vital issues that confront us today.
