Mother’s Day History
The history of Mother's Day is centuries old and goes back to the times of ancient Greeks, who held festivities to honor Rhea, the mother of the gods. The early Christians celebrated the Mother's festival on the fourth Sunday of Lent to honor Mary, the mother of Christ. Interestingly, later on a religious order stretched the holiday to include all mothers, and named it as the Mothering Sunday. The English colonists settled in America discontinued the tradition of Mothering Sunday because of lack of time.
In the United States, Mother's Day started nearly 150 years ago, when Anna Jarvis, an Appalachian homemaker, organized a day to raise awareness of poor health conditions in her community, a cause she believed would be best advocated by mothers. She called it "Mother's Work Day."
Fifteen years later, Julia Ward Howe, a Boston poet, pacifist, suffragist, and author of the lyrics to the "Battle Hymn of the Republic," organized a day encouraging mothers to rally for peace, since she believed they bore the loss of human life more harshly than anyone else.
In 1907, Anna M. Jarvis (1864-1948), a Philadelphia school teacher, began a movement to set up a national Mother's Day in honor of her mother, Ann Maria Reeves Jarvis. She solicited the help of hundreds of legislators and prominent businessmen to create a special day to honor mothers. The first such Mother's Day was celebrated in Grafton, West Virginia, on May 10, 1908, in the Andrews Methodist Episcopal (now United Methodist) Church where the elder Ann Jarvis had taught Sunday School. Grafton is the home to the International Mother's Day Shrine. The 1912 General Conference of The Methodist Episcopal Church, at the suggestion of delegates from Andrews M.E. Church, recognized Jarvis as the founder and advocated the celebration of the holiday. From there, the custom caught on — spreading eventually to 45 states. The holiday was declared officially by some states beginning in 1912. In 1914 President Woodrow Wilson declared the first national Mother's Day, as a day for American citizens to show the flag in honour of those mothers whose sons had died in war. Nine years after the first official Mother's Day holiday, commercialization of the U.S. holiday became so rampant that Anna Jarvis herself became a major opponent of what the holiday had become. Mother's Day continues to this day to be one of the most commercially successful U.S. holidays.
Slowly and gradually the Mother's day became very popular and gift giving activity increased. All this commercialization of the Mother's day infuriated Anna as she believed that the day's sentiment was being sacrificed at the expense of greed and profit.
Regardless of Jarvis's worries, Mother's Day has flourished in the United States. Actually, the Second Sunday of May has become the most popular day of the year. Although Anna may not be with us but the Mother's day lives on and has spread to various countries of the world. Many countries throughout the world celebrate Mother's Day at various times during the year, but some such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium also celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May.

I will trust You, trust You alone
I will give You all my worship
I will give You all my praise
You alone, I long to worship
You alone, are worthy of my praise
You alone, are worthy of my praise
As the deer panteth for the water,
So my soul longeth after You.
You alone are my heart's desire,
And I long to worship You.
You alone are my strength, my shield,
To you alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart's desire,
And I long to worship You.
I want You more than gold or silver,
Only You can satisfy.
You alone are the real joy giver,
And the apple of my eye.
You're my friend and You are my brother,
Even though you are a King.
I want you more than any other,
So much more than anything.

Hymn Lyrics
Let my heart be changed, renewed,
Flowing from the grace that I found in You.
Lord, I’ve come to know the weakness
That I see in me,
Will be stripped away,
By the power of Your love.
Chorus:
Hold me close, Let Your love surround me,
Bring me near, draw me to Your side,
And as I wait, I’ll rise up like the eagle,
And I will soar with You,
Your spirit leads me on,
In the power of Your love.
Lord, unveil my eyes, Let me see You face to face,
The knowledge of Your love, As you live in me.
Renew my mind, As your will unfolds in my life
In living everyday, In the power of Your love.
