Thought to ponder this Mother’s day:

Ephesians 6:1-4  Children, obey your parents (in the Lord), for this is right. "Honor your father and mother." This is the first commandment with a promise, "that it may go well with you and that you may have a long life on earth." Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up with the training and instruction of the Lord.

Occasionally we’re caught by our impatience when we are nagged by our mothers which often results to aloofness/coldness than love and affection, which may lead to break this “hero concept” impression towards our mother.   

Come to think of it, nagging is another expression of distorted, misguided love, which has nothing to do with irrational fears, as God Himself gives His creations an equal measurement of heart, mind and conscience that could weigh and realize misgivings.

Taken from your relationship with your moms, what are the values that you like most which develop your closeness with her?  If you’re not close with your moms, could you cite any weak-points that you think are the primary causes of your not being close to her? How do you cope with this encounter?
