Saturday, May 8, 9-12 a.m.. r," MOTHER'S DAY year, as has been our custam for some years now, we set aside the second Sunday io May as a day on which to honor the mothers of men. Some are fortunate in having a living mother with whom they may communicate by phone or wire. Many honor the memory of a mother who has gone to her reward. Yes, it is good to celebrate Mother’s Day — to pay tribute to mothers everywhere. We extol their virtues, we honor their memories. Wearing a white or a colored flower, we go to church on Mother's Day where often, special recognition is given to the oldest mother present, the youngest, the one with the greatest number of children. We listen to an appropriate message and music, and our hearts are warmed by blessed memories. All of that is good! We should celebrate Mother’s Day, but — must our observance be limited to f ne day? Could we not be more thoughtful, more considerate of Mother each and every day? In closing, may I say this to all mothers everywhere? In this day when we hear so much of juvenile delinquency, are you heeding this admonition; “Train up a child in the way he should go and, when he is old, he will not depart from it."

How much do we take it for granted that the night will end r.ad there will be another tomorrow? Do we ever doubt that spring will come on the heels of winter and linger awhile? We know these things about our world, so we have no doubts. As we watch our world go by the picture window of life, do we also forget sometimes how all things are possible? Do we ever thank God for all the good things that we take so much for granted? Do we ever remind ourselves that real security is something that lasts forex er? We have no fear that God will desert us. Let us not desert God. Read your BIBLE daily and GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY
