As I was growing up, I was always told that I would appreciate my parent’s wisdom and maturity when I was an adult. While that was hard for me to realize then, I can now understand the depth of unconditional love that a parent feels for a child. Not only did this realization bring me closer to my mother, but it brought me closer to Jesus. The knowledge that God loves us unconditionally as his children, that he is forgiving and merciful and always beside us, is what gives me the strength to make the most of every day.
As Mother’s Day approaches I know now that the gift of prayer and time spent together is the most meaningful one to every mother. Before Mother’s Day arrives this year, spend some time in prayer and reflection. Ask yourself what would build an everlasting memory with your mother for both of you. To accompany this gift of time and companionship, look through the small, useful gifts offered by CTA. They are simple, sincere, and practical, wrapped and ready to present, and accompanied by the word of God-the best gift of all.
I received the devotional, Woman of God-Moments of Grace at our church service for Mother’s Day. What a great gift, it is the most wonderful gift I could have gotten! Just the simple statement: It’s time for me, And a cup of tea-WOW I just love this little book and would like to get more for my friends as I witness to them. Is there some info you could send me as to how I could go about this? Thank you
Donna,
I am so sorry for the delay in getting back with you — we’ve had some changes in responsibility for maintenance, and I’m afraid, we’ve been negligent in our response time. And for that I apologize.
Here’s a quick link to the CTA, Inc. website (scroll a bit to find either the NIV or KJV translation ). You can purchase whatever quantity you need there:
