Mom, your trust in God outlasted my doubts — and somehow your patience outlasted both.

New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
May the Lord lift His countenance upon you today, the way you've lifted mine through quiet years.
Your kneeling shaped my standing. I didn't see the connection until I had children of my own.
Mom, you carried scripture in your pockets like spare change — and spent it generously when we needed it.
May the peace that surpasses understanding find you on the couch, undisturbed, for at least one hour.
Like Anna in the temple, you waited and worshiped — and somehow the waiting itself became the gift.

More from today
Your faith wasn't decorative. It cooked dinner, paid bills, and stayed up late. Honor it today.
Mom, the gospel you lived was easier to read than any one I've ever opened in a pew.
May God bless you with the rest you've earned and the recognition you'd politely refuse to take.
You modeled forgiveness so often I assumed it was easy. It wasn't. You just made the cost invisible.
Happy Mother's Day, Mom — your devotion to God has been the quietest sermon I've ever heard preached.
Like the Shunammite woman, you made room for the holy in a small house. We all benefited from the addition.
Mom, your hope was stubborn and your gentleness was steel. I'm still figuring out how you held both.
May the Bread of Life feed you today as faithfully as you've fed all of us — including the ungrateful ones.
You taught me that gratitude is not a feeling but a discipline. Today I'm practicing. You're the reason.
Mom, the God who sees did, in fact, see you — even when no one else thought to look up.
Your hospitality was a sacrament we kept mistaking for a meal. Both were true. Both fed us.
May the Shepherd lead you beside still waters this Sunday — preferably ones you don't have to refill yourself.
Mom, your obedience made my disobedience feel smaller than it was. Grace has that effect.
Like Lydia, you opened your home and your heart on the same hinge. I learned to swing both wider.
Your faith in me predated my faith in anything. That sequence still humbles me.
Happy Mother's Day to the woman who could quote scripture without quoting it — by simply being it.
Mom, the God of all comfort comforts through you. I've been on the receiving end too many times to deny it.
May your soul magnify the Lord today, the way Mary's did — and the way yours quietly has for decades.
You loved God out loud by loving us in private. The witness was unmistakable to anyone paying attention.
