Celebrate Jesus!
Pastor Tom Joyce

“Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us.”
I John 4:11-12
Here is the amazing thing about grace; no matter the road we have traversed, no matter the mess we have made of our lives, God’s love endures for us and in us. St. Paul writes in Philippians 3:13, “Beloved, I do not consider that I have made it my own; but this one thing I do; forgetting what lies behind and straining for what lies ahead.” God’s love is enduring; it heals us from the heartbreaks and sins of our past, abides with us in the present moment, and prepares for us an eternity of peace and celebration of the presence of our resurrected Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. When the love of God abides in us, we cannot help but share that love with those around us. A mother’s love is the witness of God’s eternal love that abides within them; God’s love is perfected in those who love unconditionally. When we celebrate Mother’s Day, we celebrate the women among us who share God’s love that lives within them. We celebrate those who now fully realize the love of God as they bask in the very presence of our Lord and Savior and “now rest from their labors.” God’s love for you is forever; it heals you, redeems you, and calls you by name. God put in your path those who remind you of this, “overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God.” (Cory Asbury) Celebrate the moms in your life that have shared, and continue to share the love that can only come from God. Thank you Jesus!
