Relay for Life is the signature fundraising event of the Ameri

much more than a walk around a track. It is a time to celebrate
those who have battled cancer, remember those who lost the fight
and inspire those battling the disease to fight back. Participants
form teams, raise money through a variety of activities and walk
non-stop “because cancer doesn’t sleep.’’
Relay for Life represents the hope that those lost to cancer will
never be forgotten, that those who face cancer will be supported
and that one day cancer will be eliminated.
The Survivors’ Dinner will be held 6 p.m. Thursday, May 7, at
Planters Electric Membership Corporation.

The Virtues of Motherhood
We can learn much from our mothers besides such wise advice as to eat a good breakfast
and to wash our hands often. While it is true that mothers usually know a lot of good prac
tical stuff, infinitely more important than their practical wisdom is their solicitous care and
unconditional love. Across most of the animal kingdom, and almost universally among mam
mals, we see in motherhood an instinctual care and protection of their young. For example,
think of the mother bear and the warning to never come between a bear and her cubs. Good
mothers will defend their young against almost any threat, often at great risk to themselves,
and usually attend to their children’s care and feeding before they attend to their own. Good
mothers too, love their youngsters even when they have gone astray; this unconditional
maternal love is perhaps the clearest reflection of God’s unconditional love. In the same way
that a good mother will tell a child that is being punished that this doesn’t mean they are
loved any less, so too does God chastise His children, telling us that God is love and eve
rything He does is a manifestation of that love, including His punishment. This Mother’s Day,
we should reflect on how our mother’s love mirrors God’s love for us, even in those times
when she is correcting us.
My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor lose courage when you are punished by Him. For the Lord disciplines
him who he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives. R.S.V. Hebrews 12:5-6
