Happy Mother's Day!

I found the following really interesting. The people at Welch's Grape Juice commissioned a study of 2,000 mothers with children between the ages of five and twelve years of age. They discovered that moms work an average of 98 hours per week. Yes, I said 98 hours a week. On average, mom clocks in at 6:23 am and clocks out at 8:31 pm.1

That's a fourteen-hour day if you are keeping track at home! So based on this date, when your child reached eighteen years of age, moms you have put in nearly 92,000 hours of work. No wonder you are so tired :)!

-Chief Financial Officer
-Chief Operating Officer
-Logistics Analyst
-Housekeeper
-Laundry Manager
-Van Driver
-School Teacher
-Facilities Manager
-Meeting/Event Planner
-Kitchen Manager
-Assistant Athletics Director
-Staff Nurse
-Bookkeeper
-Physical Therapy Supervisor
-Nutrition Director
-Consumer Loan Officer
-Fast Food Cook
-Server
-Conflicts Manager
-Interior Designer
-Fundraising Coordinator2

Moms, you put in the work! Moms, so many of you are amazing! Your mother may have adopted you, given birth to you, or filled the role of mom for you for a number of reasons. I hope you'll give thanks to your mother today. I hope you'll give thanks to our God for your mother this day. Today, I want to raise the flag to champion courageous, god-fearing mothers.

Find Matthew 10 and Hebrews 11 with me if you will.
