Thanking God for Great Moms Everywhere

For every special Mom in your life, today we encourage you to honor each one by seeking out just the right Scripture that describes how she inspires you. Maybe it's your own mom. Maybe it's a friend, a confidante who always seems to have great life advice right when you need it. Or maybe you've noticed a neighbor who takes great care of her kids.

Whether it's with a call, a text, or even posting a Verse Image to her Facebook page, take a moment to let the moms in your life know how special they are. For this first day of Family Bible Week, we've pulled together just a few of our favorite inspirational passages to help get you started:

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
1 Corinthians 13:4–7 (NIV)

An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels.
Proverbs 31:10 (ESV)

…we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
Romans 8:28 (NLT)
