On lds.org there is an article called "The Sabbath Was Made for Mom, Not Mom for the Sabbath" by Greg Trimble. I read it today and thought, YES! Mom's do SO much on Sundays but they are in need of a renewing Sabbath Day as well!
So I want you to think about Sunday's at your house. What is your mom doing? Usually she is helping everyone get ready and dressed for church. Then she gathers everything needed for lessons or the littles. She helps everyone sit quietly during sacrament meeting, sometimes taking out a loud or crying sibling (hopefully that's not you, haha). After church she is making meals, attending meetings, playing with kids, providing games or outings for the family, and so much more.
Does that sound like your mom?
Well I've got a challenge for you.
This Sunday (tomorrow) give your Mom a hand!
Maybe you could make dinner.
Maybe you could help siblings get ready.
Maybe you could do a quick pick up of the kitchen or family room.
Maybe you could entertain siblings while Mom takes a breather.
Whatever way you help, your Mom will be so grateful.
She needs a minute to rejuvenate, to feel spiritually uplifted, and you have the ability to help her!
Helping her Sabbath be a little meaningful with help Mom know what she means to you.
