“Forsake not the law of thy mother” (Proverbs 1:8).

Some of us are privileged in that we were raised by mothers who loved the Lord. Solomon wanted his son to think carefully about what he had learned from his mother. He called this the “law of your mother.” This speaks of the spiritual principles that Mother consistently and lovingly communicated to her children. On this Mother’s Day, think of the things you have learned from your Mother. If her law was based on Biblical principles, then do not forsake them!

For today: If your Mother taught you the ways of the Lord, thank Him! And if possible, thank her as well!
