Mothers
To those who gave birth this year to their first child—we celebrate with you
To those who lost a child this year – we mourn with you
To those who are in the trenches with little ones every day and wear the badge of food stains – we appreciate you
To those who experienced loss through miscarriage, failed adoptions, or running away—we mourn with you
To those who walk the hard path of infertility, fraught with pokes, prods, tears, and disappointment – we walk with you. Forgive us when we say foolish things. We don’t mean to make this harder than it is.
To those who are foster moms, mentor moms, and spiritual moms – we need you

To those who have disappointment, heart ache, and distance with your children – we sit with you
To those who lost their mothers this year – we grieve with you
To those who experienced abuse at the hands of your own mother – we acknowledge your experience
To those who lived through driving tests, medical tests, and the overall testing of motherhood – we are better for having you in our midst
To those who are single and long to be married and mothering your own children – we mourn that life has not turned out the way you longed for it to be
To those who step-parent – we walk with you on these complex paths
To those who envisioned lavishing love on grandchildren -yet that dream is not to be, we grieve with you
To those who will have emptier nests in the upcoming year – we grieve and rejoice with you
To those who placed children up for adoption — we commend you for your selflessness and remember how you hold that child in your heart
And to those who are pregnant with new life, both expected and surprising –we anticipate with you
This Mother’s Day, we walk with you. Mothering is not for the faint of heart and we have real warriors in our midst. We remember you.

Gone

Verse 1

It wasn't for nothing that you shed your blood
So I'm gonna live like my shame is gone
Won't be shackled to the way I was
I'm gonna live like my chains are

Chorus

Gone gone
Now my sin is dead and gone
And I sing hallelujah
Done done
He is risen it is done
And I sing hallelujah

Verse 2

Praise is a weapon that will overcome
I'm gonna shout like the battle's won
Fall back devil cause your time is up
I'm gonna live like the stone is

Bridge

How great the power of the blood
Oh oh
I am the righteousness of God
Oh oh
(Oh oh)

There Is A King

Verse 1

There is a king seated among us
Let every heart receive Him now
Where there is praise He will inhabit
There will be grace and mercy all around

Chorus 1

(And) Every burden will be lifted in His presence
Every trophy will be laid down at His feet
There is a name that reigns above all others
Jesus Christ the king above all kings

Verse 2

Unto the lamb honor and glory
Worthy is He who overcame
Buried in shame risen in power
He is alive the stone is rolled away

Chorus 2

All our worship will belong to Him forever
Death is conquered and our Savior holds the keys
There is a name that reigns above all others
Jesus Christ the king above all kings

Verse 3

It won't be long we will behold Him
And every tear He'll wipe away
We'll be at home the war will be over
Soon we will meet our Savior face to face

Chorus 3

And all our worship will belong to You forever
Holy holy for all eternity
Yours is the name that reigns above all others
Jesus Christ the king above all kings
Jesus Christ the king above all kings

 STOP COMPARING YOUR CALLING

The fastest way to kill something special is to compare it to something else.  

Stop Comparing Your Calling

  • Sometimes God’s preparation comes packaged as pain.
  • Your purpose is not for you. Your purpose is for God.
  • You don’t find your purpose. You serve God’s purpose.
  • If you want to serve God’s purpose, start serving God’s people.

1)  You are perfectly created by God to fulfill God’s purpose for you.  

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. Ephesians 2:10 NLT  

Comparison is the enemy of calling!  

2)  You can’t fulfill God’s purpose for you when you are comparing to someone else.  

So she [Mary] came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!” 3 So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. 4 Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. …6 Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. …Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside. … John 20:2-4, 6, 8 NIV    

Peter turned around and saw behind them the disciple Jesus loved … 21 Peter asked Jesus, “What about him, Lord?” 22 Jesus replied, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? As for you, follow me.” John 21:20-22 NLT  

… And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. … Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV  

Goodness Of God

Verse 1

I love You Lord
Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I've been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
I will sing of the goodness of God

Chorus

All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
I will sing of the goodness of God

Verse 2

I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest night
You are close like no other
I've known You as a father
I've known You as a friend
I have lived in the goodness of God

Bridge

Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me

See A Victory

Verse 1

The weapon may be formed but it won't prosper
When the darkness falls it won't prevail
'Cause the God I serve knows only how to triumph
My God will never fail
My God will never fail

Chorus

I'm gonna see a victory
I'm gonna see a victory
For the battle belongs to You Lord
I'm gonna see a victory
I'm gonna see a victory
For the battle belongs to You Lord

Verse 2

There's power in the mighty Name of Jesus
Every war He wages He will win
I'm not backing down from any giant
I know how this story ends
I know how this story ends

Bridge

You take what the enemy meant for evil
And You turn it for good
You turn it for good

TALK IT OVER  
Use these questions on your drive home to continue the conversation from the message today.

Read Ephesians 2:10.

Be honest: Do you really think of yourself as a masterpiece? Why or why not?  

Do you know God’s purpose for your life?
If so, how are you pursuing it? If not, how can you discover it?
 

What insecurities do you need to lay down so you can run the race God has marked out for you?
