BEHOLD, THE MAIDSERVANT OF THE LORD
We honour Mothers today, because it is good and right,
May this Mother’s Day bring to their hearts, special delight!
Thank God for godly mothers who rise to the call of motherhood,
May thebe be blessed for their commitment to be wise and good!
The mother of our Lord Jesus Christ comes to mind today,
What was her secret, that she was chosen to serve and obey?
Mary’s heart was revealed when she declared to the angel of God,
With all her heart she said, “Behold, the maidservant of the Lord!”
Mary saw her role as one who was committed to serving the Lord,
She was prepared to take on whatever role that was given by God!
She did not ask for an easier life for herself or for her family,
Her heart was deeply committed, no matter how harsh the reality!
She chose to obey the Lord God for she had full faith in His will,
She would become the mother of Jesus! What a great thrill!
Mary remained faithful and true to her role as the mother of the Lord;
Let all mothers draw inspiration from Mary’s example of serving God!
Inspiration: Luke 1:18
