Mother's Day occurs every year in America and Canada on the second Sunday of May. As we celebrate mothers everywhere, we give thanks to God for them! Truly honoring mothers on this special day means that you can select a handful of worship songs that still focus on God, even as they reflect the heart and character of mothers. Expand your themes to include words like compassion, honor, faithfulness, love, provision, care, healing, sonship, adoption, comfort, and redemption. These are qualities that mothers bring into our lives. With these themes, you can plan a powerful time of worship that will engage mothers deep within their spirit, reflecting their hearts as you lead your whole congregation in worship to God. Get all the sheet music, chord charts and tracks you need today!

Sadness, frustration and anger are emotions not often embraced as inevitable parts of life—or of our spiritual journey. What do you do when you find yourself in a season of lament? There is good news that most of us know but few choose to embrace: lament is a necessary and healthy spiritual condition, an exercise of faith that can lead to eventual joy and peace that words fail to capture. Lament. This long expression of deep pain or sorrow isn't a sign of a *lack* of faith or spiritual weakness. It's a soul-strengthening exercise.
