mothers' day <3

mothers' day service was today. :)
this year's senior class did a special rendition of "O Rejoice In The Lord"

God never moves without purpose or plan.
When trying His servant and molding a mum.
Give thanks to the Lord
though her testing seems long;
In darkness He giveth a song.

Refrain:
O rejoice in the Lord,
He makes no mistake,
He knoweth the end of each path that she takes,
For when she is tried and purified,
She shall come forth as gold.

She could not see through the shadows ahead;
So she looked at the cross of my Saviour instead,
She bowed to the will of the Master that day;
Then peace came and tears fled away.

Now she can see testing comes from above,
God strengthens His children and purges in love.
My Father knows best, and I trust in His care;
Through purging more fruit I will bear.

i was super touched by the song cos it really kinda spoke of my mum. all the trouble she has been through just to bring my bro and myself up. and we dont exactly give her an easy time. yet she still remains strong- a tough cookie. and her faith in the Lord is legendary. how she trusts and puts everything in His hands. i would say my mum's the exemplary mum. and i love her to bits. in fact, i think i have the best set of parents in the entire world. :) i feel so blessed.
as the song was being sung, i also thought of my grandmothers and i have come to the conclusion that it is not easy to be a mum. hmm..would i ever as good as them? (would i even be one? :) )
i love my mum! <3<3

anyways, on the way back from church, my mum and i were grooving to this song in the car. HAHA. my mum's quite funky. HAHAA :P
