"Honor her for all that her hands have done,
 and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
                                                                        Proverbs 31:31


Mother's Day became an official holiday in the United States of America over a hundred years ago. On May 9th 1914 President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed that the second Sunday in May  each year is to be Mother's Day,  as he called on  Americas to celebrate the holiday by "displaying the American flag and for the public expression of love and reverence for the mothers of the country." 

The first Mother's Day celebrations had taken place several years before this official proclamation of the holiday. In 1906 Anna Jarvis conducted a Mothers Day gathering to recognize the accomplishments of her mother who had passed away the year before.  In Grafton, West Virginia, her mother Ann Marie Jarvis had created Mothers Day Work Clubs during the Civil War to assist grieving  mothers. As her mother was conducting a lesson titled Mothers of the Bible at the Methodist Church she said a prayer where she hoped that someday there would be a memorial day to mothers living and dead to commemorate their matchless service to humanity. Anna Jarvis then spent the next several years campaigning for a day to honor mothers. 

Proverbs 31:15-16
She gets up while it is still dark;
She provides food for her family
And portions for her servant girls.
She considers a filed and buys it;
Out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. God bless our mothers that are up before dawn making our daily life easier. 

Psalm 113:9
He settles the barren woman in her home, as a joyful mother of children. 




Proverbs 31:25
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.








Proverbs 31:28

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.


3 John 1:4
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
