THIS DAY IN HISTORY

 

Happy Mother's Day!

 

We always appreciate our moms, but Mother's Day is a special time set aside to honor them. Throughout history, leaders have acknowledged and honored the defined role mothers hold in society.

It is agreeable to observe how differently modern writers and the inspired author of the Proverbs describe a fine woman....The one is admired abroad; the other is honored and beloved at home. “Her children arise up and call her blessed, her husband also, and he praiseth her.” There is no fame in the world equal to this; nor is there a note in music half so delightful as the respectful language with which a grateful son or daughter perpetuates the memory of a sensible and affectionate mother. (Benjamin Rush, 1787)

American history abounds with examples of mothers who have been moral and spiritual leaders inspiring generations after them. Mother's Day is a great opportunity to rediscover their stories to encourage a new generation of moms.

 

Today, be sure to honor the mothers in your life. Also encourage your family to learn about heroic mothers of the past. Happy Mother's Day!
