Inspirational Quotes For Moms:

Offering A Tribute

Poet: Cornella Frances Douglass

In offering a tribute to mother today,
There is joy that we cannot express
Her kindness and love we can never repay,
Though we strive to do always our best.
 
She labors that home may be pleasant and sweet,
A place like no other,
But it's ever her presence that makes it complete,
For what would home be without mother?

My Mother

Poet: Kenneth Merry

When pain and sickness make me cry,
Who wept for fear that I might die?
My Mother!
 
She works and saves and plans for me,
To bring me up as a man should be,
My Mother!
 
She corrects my faults day after day,
And tries to show me the better way,
My Mother!
 
I'll try to go straight for your dear sake,
And bless my God that he did make,
My Mother.

A Tribute Of Praise

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Mother, you have been a blessing in our lives.
We honor you now with this tribute of praise;
Your kindness and grace no one else can replicate,
Your unconditional love with us through every phase.
 
We cherish your wisdom and strength each day,
As your guidance guides us on our way;
Our gratitude we send to you,
To a Mother whom we love every day.

Tribute to a Mother Who Passed Away

Though you are gone, your love remains,
A light that shines through loss and pain.
Your voice, your touch, your quiet grace—
I still can feel in time and space.
 
You gave me strength, you gave me peace,
And taught me love will never cease.
So now I honor all you gave—
Your memory, a gift I save.

Tribute to Mom

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Mom, when I think of you
And all that you do
I thank God above
For all your love.
 
Many times you did without
To your children you were devout
You encouraged and gave support
And you always were a good sport.
 
Mom, this tribute is just for you
Know that we think the world of you
Words cannot express how much
We appreciate and love you such!

My Dearest Mom

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

My dearest Mom, it’s true,
Your strength has seen me through;
You held my hand as I grew up,
Through worries and fears, you stood like a cup.
 
Your guidance shows in all I do,
To repay your love I haven’t a clue;
You taught me the meaning of life and care,
An uncrushable bond that we share.
 
For the unconditional love you have shown me,
I owe my life to you eternally;
Your warmth and devotion are so grand -
Thanks for being an amazing Mom!

A Mother’s Daily Sacrifices

You rose before the morning light,
Prepared our days, turned wrongs to right.
No fanfare came, no great applause—
Just silent love without a pause.
 
You gave your time, your dreams on hold,
So we could grow, so we’d be bold.
In every chore, in every task,
You gave your all—no need to ask.
 
The world may not have seen it clear,
But I now know, and hold it dear.
A mother’s love, both strong and true,
Shines in the little things you do.

God Bless You

Catherine Pulsifer

God keep and bless you on this special day
God watch over you this I always pray
God give you faith to see your dreams come true
And on this New Year may God bless you.

The Closing Year

Poet: Unknown

How soon the year has passed away!
How soon its race was run!
And of the work I planned to do,
How little has been done!
I vowed to more of kindness show
To those who were in need;
To help the fallen, save the lost,
And sow the precious seed;
 
To soothe the sorrow, dry the tear,
And others' burdens bear;
To be more Christlike every day,
And in his work to share;
To live more pure in mind and thought,
And evil habits shun;
To be more careful of my words,
And kind to everyone.
 
But as I look back o'er the past
And view the things I've done,
The very work I planned to do
Has only been begun.                                                                                                        every side were open doors
I might have entered in;
On every hand were sinful hearts
I had the power to win;
 
On every side were saddened hearts
And heads bowed down with woe,
Where dearest joys had fled away
To these I did not go;
And when some hard and crushing blow
The trusting heart had broken,
A kindly word would heal the wound
That word was never spoken.
 
Shall I go on through all the years
And all these duties shirk?
Shall I presume upon His love
And fail to do His work?
Can I expect to wear a crown
And join the blood-washed throng?
Shall I, with saints and angels, join
To sing redemption's song?
 
No; I must bravely take my cross
And do His work in love,
Assured if I will do my part,
I'll share his joy above.
Lord, give to me thy grace divine,
That through each coming day,
My feet may ever keep the path
That leads the upward way.

Faith and commitment to do better

Despite the shortcomings, the poet resolves to take up their cross and follow God’s path with determination. They trust that with God's grace, they can stay on the right path and ultimately share in God's joy above.

Poet: William Canton

When the herds were watching
In the midnight chill,
Came a spotless lambkin
From the heavenly hill.
 
Snow was on the mountains,
And the wind was cold.
When from God's own garden
Dropped a rose of gold.
 
When it was bitter winter,
Houseless and forlorn
In a star-lit stable
Christ the Babe was born.
 
Welcome, heavenly lambkin;
Welcome, golden rose;
Alleluia, Baby,
In the swaddling clothes!

I Am But A Tiny Girl

Poet: Elizabeth Froude Campbell

I am but a tiny girl,
And don't quite understand
All the pretty things I'm told
About the spirit land.
 
I know that Jesus was a child.
And quite lowly born;
And was laid where oxen feed,
On a Christmas morn.
 
While shepherds watched their sheep one night,
All resting on the ground.
An angel came from God to them.
And glory shone around.
 
He pointed to a lovely star,
'Neath where the baby lay;
The shepherds sought the place to find
Before the break of day.
 
They found it, and 'twas sacred ground,
Everywhere they trod;
Then kneeling down, they gazed upon
The Holy Child of God.
 
This child, I know, to manhood grew.
And died for us through love;
He rose again, and now as king
Reigns in our home above.

Grateful for His Gift

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Let Christmas fill our world with cheer,
With gratitude for Christ so dear.
God’s precious gift, our guiding light,
Brings faith and hope through every night.
 
Let love reflect His holy grace,
As joy lights up each heart and place.
Together, may we humbly pray,
Thanking God for this blessed day.

Offering A Tribute

Poet: Cornella Frances Douglass
 
 In offering a tribute to mother today,
 There is joy that we cannot express
 Her kindness and love we can never repay,
 Though we strive to do always our best.
 
 She labors that home may be pleasant and sweet,
 A place like no other,
 But it's ever her presence that makes it complete,
 For what would home be without mother?

My Mother

Poet: Kenneth Merry
 
 When pain and sickness make me cry,
 Who wept for fear that I might die?
 My Mother!
 
 She works and saves and plans for me,
 To bring me up as a man should be,
 My Mother!
 
 She corrects my faults day after day,
 And tries to show me the better way,
 My Mother!
 
 I'll try to go straight for your dear sake,
 And bless my God that he did make,
 My Mother.

A Tribute Of Praise

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
 
 Mother, you have been a blessing in our lives.
 We honor you now with this tribute of praise;
 Your kindness and grace no one else can replicate,
 Your unconditional love with us through every phase.
 
 We cherish your wisdom and strength each day,
 As your guidance guides us on our way;
 Our gratitude we send to you,
 To a Mother whom we love every day.

Tribute to a Mother Who Passed Away

Though you are gone, your love remains,
 A light that shines through loss and pain.
 Your voice, your touch, your quiet grace—
 I still can feel in time and space.
 
 You gave me strength, you gave me peace,
 And taught me love will never cease.
 So now I honor all you gave—
 Your memory, a gift I save.

·        "A dad is the hero his son hopes to be. Sons learn what their fathers teach them: to be kind, thoughtful, loving, and mindful. The joy in a little boy's eyes shines in his father's heart. A son is the clearest reflection of his father in the world. A father may only be a dad for a little while, but he is a son's hero forever." 

·        “The greatest mark of a father is how he treats his children when no one is looking.” —Dan Pearce

·        “Fathers, be good to your daughters. You are the weight of her world.” —John Mayer

·        “Every father should remember one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.” ― Charles F. Kettering

·        "My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person: He believed in me." ― Jim Valvano

• "Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord."

 “Good fathers do three things: they provide, they nurture, and they guide.” — Roland Warren

“Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes, adventurers, storytellers, and singers of song.” — Pam Brown

Her Hands

·        By Maggie Pittman

Poem About All A Mother Does

Her hands held me gently from the day I took my first breath.
 Her hands helped to guide me as I took my first step.
 Her hands held me close when the tears would start to fall.
 Her hands were quick to show me that she would take care of it all.

Her hands were there to brush my hair, or straighten a wayward bow.
 Her hands were often there to comfort the hurts that didn't always show.
 Her hands helped hold the stars in place, and encouraged me to reach.
 Her hands would clap and cheer and praise when I captured them at length.
 
 Her hands would also push me, though not down or in harm's way.
 Her hands would punctuate the words, just do what I say.
 Her hands sometimes had to discipline, to help bend this young tree.
 Her hands would shape and mold me into all she knew I could be.
 
 Her hands are now twisting with age and years of work,
 Her hand now needs my gentle touch to rub away the hurt.
 Her hands are more beautiful than anything can be.
 Her hands are the reason I am me.
 
  

Mommy

·        By Gail M. Russellburg

I Love You Mommy Poem

Mommy, I love you
 More than you see.
 You have always been there
 When I needed you to be.

I know I don't show
 How great my love is,
 But I need you to know
 All the love of you I have to give.
 
 I wish there was more
 For you I could do,
 But all I can say
 Is how much I love you.
 
 It is deeper than the oceans,
 Higher than the sun.
 I could shout it forever
 And still not be done.
 
 Your smile is a keepsake.
 I keep close to my heart

How Grateful I Would Be To Have Just One More Day

·         By Kathy J. Parenteau

Missing Mother

If I could have just one more day and
 wishes did come true,
 I'd spend every glorious moment
 side by side with you.  

Recalling all the years we shared
 and memories we made,
 how grateful I would be
 to have just one more day.
 Where the tears I've shed are
 not in vain and only fall in bliss.
 So many things I'd let you know
 about the days you've missed.
 I wouldn't have to make pretend
 you never went away.
 How grateful I would be to
 have just one more day.
 When that day cam

It can be difficult to know what to say when someone’s sick, even if he or she is a close friend. It helps people to know that they have a cheerleader in their corner. You can be that support system with encouraging messages like these.

1. I know you were worried about how you’d look when you lost your hair during chemo. But honestly, you look just as beautiful as ever. You’re beautiful in a different way, but you’re still you.

Cancer and its resulting treatments have a big physical impact on patients. This includes changing the way people look. They may lose their hair or lose a significant amount of weight because treatment makes them so nauseous. They may gain weight thanks to water retention from certain drugs or lose one or both breasts due to a mastectomy.

Your friend might not articulate worries about changing looks but it’s a very valid struggle that breast cancer patients go through. No matter what changes your friend undergoes, you can reassure her that she still looks amazing.   

2. You do such a great job taking care of your kids even with everything else you’re dealing with. I really admire your commitment to being an active and engaged mother. 

Breast cancer is most commonly diagnosed in women over the age of 50. But it does happen to women in their 20s and 30s as well.

If your friend is in that age range, she’s likely balancing her recovery with caring for her family. Let your friend know you see her efforts and you appreciate everything she does. 

3. Every day I’m so impressed by how gracefully you’re dealing with your diagnosis. I know there are moments when you’re angry and sick and sad. But overall, you show so much positivity and strength. Thank you for letting me be there with you through all of the feelings you experience.  

Your friend may break down and reveal how tired and fearful she is. It’s an honor when a friend feels able to be vulnerable in front of you. Express your appreciation for that and let her know that even if she sees moments of darkness, you also see and admire her.  

Encouraging Messages for a Family Member with Breast Cancer

Breast cancer patients often feel like they have to put on a brave face to the world around them. It’s around their family members that they may allow themselves to be more vulnerable.

You can pay them back for that level of trust by listening to their concerns and validating them. But you can also build them back up with powerful messages of strength. 

4. Today is such an important day! I’m so proud of you for making it through all of your chemotherapy treatments. I know they were absolutely grueling. I wish you didn’t have to endure them, but you have persevered and you deserve to celebrate your success. 

When a patient hits a milestone like completing treatment, that deserves to be celebrated. Send an encouraging message to congratulate your family member on his accomplishments. He’ll find your enthusiasm rewarding and energizing. 

5. Mom, I have always looked up to you so much. Watching the way you have fought breast cancer has been incredibly inspirational. You’ve always been so strong and such a fighter. As always, you’ve proven that there’s no situation that you can’t handle.     

Moms are the people who take care of us. When they get a serious illness, it can be incredibly frightening. Let your mom know that you have always admired the way she fights. It will give her the strength to keep fighting through this.  

6. You’ve always been a role model to me. I especially admire how well you take care of people. But I want you to know that it’s okay to let other people take care of you, too. I won’t think
