Mother's day is a time of remembering our Mothers. Mine instilled so many good principles of living while teaching me about Christ and faith. I remember her smile, laughter, and love. I remember how she embraced God into her life.
What we should never forget is that we, as mothers, need to continue to pass on through each generation our Biblical knowledge and faith so it will go forth and be passed on to future children. In 2 Timothy 1:5 NIV Paul remembers mothers: "I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in your also."
The role of the mother is important. We find what should be a description of a good Mom in Psalms. "She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household...Her children arise up, and call here blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her."

How can we look well to the ways of the household if we do not share Christ and faith with our children?
