Sharing scriptures about mothers, and using bible verses to express how important your mother is to you is a great activity for Mother\u2019s Day. Mother\u2019s Day related scriptures also make great insides to a card, and are a great inclusion in a letter or note written to your mother. The following are some great scriptures that can used as part of your Mother\u2019s Day celebration:<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs is a great place to look for scriptures to use for Mother\u2019s Day because it is so full of poetic and fluid verses. Here are some great ones to use:<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 1:8-9Hear, my son, your father\u2019s instruction, and forsake not your mother\u2019s teaching, for they are a graceful garland for your head and pendants for your neck.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 6:20-22\u00a0My son, keep your father\u2019s commandment, and forsake not your mother\u2019s teaching. Bind them on your heart always; tie them around your neck. When you walk, they will lead you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; and when you awake, they will talk with you.<br \/>\nProverbs 10:1The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish son is a sorrow to his mother.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 15:20\u00a0A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 19:26-27\u00a0He who does violence to his father and chases away his mother is a son who brings shame and reproach. Cease to hear instruction, my son, and you will stray from the words of knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 20:20\u00a0If one curses his father or his mother, his lamp will be put out in utter darkness.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 23:22-25\u00a0Listen to your father who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old. Buy truth, and do not sell it; buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding. The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him. Let your father and mother be glad; let her who bore you rejoice.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 28:24\u00a0Whoever robs his father or his mother and says, \u201cThat is no transgression,\u201d is a companion to a man who destroys.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 29:15\u00a0The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 30:11\u00a0There are those who curse their fathers and do not bless their mothers.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 30:17\u00a0The eye that mocks a father and scorns to obey a mother will be picked out by the ravens of the valley and eaten by the vultures.<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 31:1\u00a0The words of King Lemuel. An oracle that his mother taught him:<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 31:10-12\u00a0An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. \u00a0The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. \u00a0She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mother\u2019s Day was traditionally a holiday celebrated in church, where the mothers in the congregation would wear white carnations.
