Honor our Mothers & Sharla's Mom

Pin It


And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. 7 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you 
sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, 
and when you lie down, and when you rise.
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 


This month Rachel and I are so excited to give you the opportunity to honor your mothers through "Light for a Woman's Path". We have invited women of all ages to share with us alittle about their Mothers and what they mean to them. I have enjoyed reading these and I am really excited to share them with you! Tonight we open the invitation up to everyone one of our readers who would like to do the same. Through out the entire month of May we will be sharing the beautiful words written by you on LFWP. Weather you still live with your mother, or your mother lives in heaven with our loving God, we invite you to email your letters to us telling us about your mom and what she means to you.

Email us at  lightforawomanspath@gmail.com  and we will inform you when your letters are posted.

Here are just a few ideas if you would love to write about your mom, but feel like you don't know where to start.

What lessons have you learned from her
What amazes you about her
What memory of her is your favorite
What would you love to tell her today
What would you love to thank her for...

We start tonight with words from Sharla of her Mother Molly. I must say I have the privlage of knowing Sharla and I can say she is a young Lady that to this day blows me away with how much love she has for her family and for her Mother. Sharla has amazing strength and I can now see she gets it from her Mother.

My Mom

Sharla Burgess


My mom means the world to me. She is my hero and my best friend. 
She is the only person that has been there my whole life and the strongest person I've ever known.
She's the one who worked hard to make sure I had food on my plate, clothes on my back and a roof over my head.
She's the one who taught me right from wrong. The one who hugs me till the last tear is gone.
She's the one who quit the job she loved so she could stay home and homeschool me, because I couldn't handle the pressure of public school.
She's the one who tells me she loves me every night before bed even if we have just had a fight.
She's the one who lost her eyesight, couldn't see anything but still managed to homeschool her children, cook three meals a day, and take care of a baby.
She's the reason I have a relationship with Jesus Christ.
All these reasons are why my Mom means the world to me.




Sharla and her mother Molly



Thank you Sharla for sharing with us. What an honor to be a mother and share the Love of Christ with our children! May we all strive for just that! 
I invite you to share your words for your Mother. 
Thank you and be blessed!
