A Mother's Day Prayer

Treasures In The Garden

 

We would like to wish all Mother's a very Happy Mother's Day. And may all Mother's who have passed away enjoy eternal HAPPINESS.

A prayer we said for all Mothers around the world, in church this morning:

 

God of LOVE
listen to this prayer.
 God of holy people, of Sarah,Ruth a
  Holy Mary, Mother of Jesus,
bend down your ear to this request
and bless women of our families.
Bless them with strength of Spirit,
 they who have taught our children
how to stand and how to walk.
 Bless them with the melody of your LOVE,
 they who have shared how to speak,
how to sing and how to pray to You.
Bless them with a place at your eternal dinner table,
they who have fed and nurtured the lives 
that were helpless, but embraced in their LOVE.
 Bless the women of our families today,
now , in this lifetime, with good things, with health.
Bless them with joy, LOVE, laughter, and pride in our children
and surround them with many good friends.
 May the women who cared for young life
be carried one day to Your Divine embrace:
there for all eternity,
to rejoice with family and friends.
 This blessing and all graces, we pray,
 descend upon the women of our families. Amen.  


My word for today is "MOTHERING!"

Gardening Gabble



To Nurture a Garden:

 

is to not just to feed the body.......

 The glory of gardening:
hands in the dirt,
 head in the sun,
heart in nature.

.......but feed the soul as well.

Reaching our potential

Treasures In The Garden

 

Don't forget........

 

We tend to neglect to water
the good within ourselves,
 and eventually the good can die.
 And if the good dies
 we won't reach our potential.
                                  Dilbert in the morning

.......to nurture the "goodness garden" within ourselves.

Looking past our faults

Treasures In The Garden


Find Beauty and goodness.....

 

We need to water and fertilise the goodness within ourselves,
 just as we would water and fetilise the plants in our garden.
  We sometimes neglect to nurture the good inside us,
 and eventually that goodness could die.
 We need to realise the potential we have inside us.

One of the greatest gifts bestowed on us is
 the ability to reach past our faults and find
 that we have been gifted with beauty and goodness.

The goodness is God living in our soul 
and the beauty is ourselves responding.


So let us look after ourselves and release our potential!
