A lot of women are empowered right now but it does not mean they do not need encouragement. A lot of women are mothers. And all of them show great example of a mother's love and sacrifice.

Celebrate Mother's Day filled with the Holy Spirit and guidance from God with these Bible Verses:

Proverbs 31:10-30

"A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.  Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.  She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands. She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants.She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.  She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night. In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.  She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.  When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet. She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.  Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.  She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.  She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.  She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.  She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.  Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:  "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."  Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised."

Proverbs 19:26-27

"Whoever robs their father and drives out their mother is a child who brings shame and disgrace.  Stop listening to instruction, my son, and you will stray from the words of knowledge."

Mark 10:29-30

"Truly I tell you," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields-along with persecutions-and in the age to come eternal life."

Matthew 15:4-6

"For God said, 'Honor your father and mother'and 'Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.'  But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is 'devoted to God,'  they are not to 'honor their father or mother' with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition."

Deuteronomy 4:9-10

"Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them fade from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them. Remember the day you stood before the LORD your God at Horeb, when he said to me, "Assemble the people before me to hear my words so that they may learn to revere me as long as they live in the land and may teach them to their children."
